Get your NU email on your personal computer

If you wish to use your own email account, you may setup email forwarding. This will send all email you receive at your NU address to an alternate address.

To set up this feature, take the following steps:

Log into your @northwestu.edu email using Windows Internet Explorer.
Select “Rules” at the bottom of the left pane.
Click the “New” icon at the top of the Rules page.
Select “Forward it to” and type your email address in the box.
Un-check “Keep a copy in my inbox” unless you want a copy left in your NU inbox.
Click “Save and Close” at the top of the window.
Your email will now be forwarded to the provided address.

Northwest University cannot guarantee email delivery outside of the Northwest University mail system.
