June 4th for housing, I'm guessing we'll hear about our email and pennkey around then too.

you get mail sometime in the mid-end of may with instructions on how to set up your pennkey, the username / password combination that allows you access to all of penn's systems.

with your pennkey you then sign up for your school email ([yourpennkey]@[yourschool].upenn.edu).

If you already have a PennKey from a summer program or whatever, chances are that it's been updated to allow you to create an email account relevant to your school. Mine randomly starting working for Wharton and SEAS a few days ago.

Log into PennPortal and then access the Webmail page and look for a link to create an account or something like that.

You guys who are now receiving PennKeys need to create your email addresses through Campus Express. Please wait until that opens up later in the summer. You'll be getting more information about this in the mail.

lol its may 14th in the rest of the world

but you should've received a letter in the mail with instructions on setting up and using a pennKey. if not, either wait for it or contact the office for it. you can use your pennKey to set up a SAS email address may 15th onwards (tomorrow)

Haha, sorry.. I was thinking ahead. Actually wow, that was really dumb of me. Hahhaa this is embarassing. But I still haven't gotten the letter, so I might call up the school or something. hahaha.
