What do I have to do to obtain my e-mail alias?

To obtain your alias e-mail address, just do the following:

Log in to the GMS Web site (gms.georgetown.edu).
Click on the “Personal Information” icon, and then click the “Preferred Name” listing.
Change the first and/or last name fields of your name, if desired, and then click Submit; click Cancel if you don’t want to make any changes to your Preferred Name.
If you do not want to use your legal name as your Preferred Name, make sure the option “Use Legal Name as Preferred Name” is unchecked.
Your request will be routed to your HR Contact for approval. (Please allow 24 hours for the approval to take effect.)
Go to the email alias claim page to confirm your new Preferred Name and to claim your alias.
