Cornell Optional Email Alias

The Cornell Optional Email Alias (COEA) service allows eligible individuals to create a Cornell email address based on their name. (Faculty, staff, and trustees are eligible.) That new address will take the form of an alias plus “@cornell.edu”. (For example, phil.schmertz@cornell.edu)

An Alias does not replace your NetID or your NetID@cornell.edu address.

Choosing an Alias is completely voluntary. If you don’t want one, you don’t need to do anything.

For details about creating an email alias, see Request an Email Alias or read the Cornell Optional Email Alias FAQ.
