No. Your alumni email account will be different from your previous @usca.edu account. This is required by Microsoft.
Students will continue to use their Pacer Account username as part of their email address, but @usca.edu will become @alumni.usca.edu. For example, a student who previously used This email address is being protected from spambots.
