Off-Campus & Grad Students

Zagmail

Your GU email account, Zagmail, is very important. Professors and Graduate School Staff use Zagmail as your primary contact. You are responsible for all information sent to Zagmail. After you register for classes, we can request your Zagmail account. Once your account is created, we will email you your Gonzaga email address and instructions for setting your password.

Please note: Gonzaga has had issues with the blocking/junk-mail functions of non-GU email accounts such as hotmail, gmail, yahoo, etc. If you forward your Zagmail to any of these accounts, you many not receive important (and official) emails from Gonzaga.

Student ID Cards

Your GU ID acts as your library card and is required for many general uses at Gonzaga, including sporting events. To obtain your ID Card you must be registered for classes and have your payment plan arranged. You can go to Student Financial Services in the lower level of Crosby or use one of their mail-in options. Be advised offices on campus may close for lunch.

Blackboard

When you register for classes you are automatically registered on Blackboard.

Please note: Not all classes will be on Blackboard as professors have to turn on their Blackboard site manually. If you do not see your course via Blackboard, please contact your professor directly.

Additional Resources

We are dedicated to helping students and families in the pursuit of their educational goals by providing financial information and resources in a professional and individualized manner. We recognize the unique and intrinsic value of each person and are committed to serving all in an environment of equality, responsibility, and dignity.

The Career & Professional Development office is here to assist you with your career development needs. Here are some ways we can provide support to students and alumni:

Helping students develop a balanced and healthy lifestyle, Gonzaga University offers a series of wellness programs each year and provides peer-to-peer assistance and educational programs for students concerning fitness, spiritual guidance, alcohol, drugs and violence prevention.

We are here for students; helping with the myriad of challenges, questions, and concerns they may have; providing services and programs to meet their needs; and encourage their growth and development to the fullest potential.

The Graduate Student Association (GSA) is your organization! Comprised of a president and council, who represent the various graduate programs at Gonzaga, the GSA acts as the conduit for voicing student (both on campus and online) concerns to the administration and seeks to improve graduate education and student life at Gonzaga University. The GSA encourages scholarship and professional development by administering scholarships to students attending and/or presenting at conferences. The GSA also organizes many academic and social events throughout the year. To get involved with the Graduate contact the President, Amelia at aevans3@zagmail.gonzaga.edu.
