Default disk quotas
Note: On October 29, 2009, UITS began migrating undergraduate student accounts from the IU Webmail (Cyrus) system to the Google-sponsored Umail system. For more, see About the automatic email account migration from IU Webmail (Cyrus) to Umail.
Following are the default disk quotas for UITS accounts:

*The Imail and Umail services are hosted and maintained by outside partners (Microsoft and Google); UITS cannot adjust these quotas. See At IU, what is Imail? or At IU, what is Umail?
**With sponsorship from an instructor or full-time staff member, students may request an Exchange account. See At IU, what are Exchange accounts, and how do I get one?
***Your Big Red, Quarry, and RDC home directory disk space is shared by any accounts you have on those systems. For more, see At IU, how much disk space is available to me on the research systems?
****This is the quota for individual accounts. Collaborators can request additional space for projects.
