Editors note: A previous version of this article included an incorrect method on how to change your email address. We apologize for the error and have corrected it below.

Are you bored of your three letter, four number Penn State email address? Well, you’re in luck. There is actually a way to customize your account settings so that you can put virtually anything in front of the “@psu.edu” that many students don’t utilize.

Here’s how to do it:

Log on to work.psu.edu and scroll down to “Other Directory Information.” Click “Add up to three alternate E-mail IDs.” You should see this screen:

I encourage you all to put your creativity to the test. Unfortunately, NittanyLion@psu.edu is already taken, but the options are endless.
