A big change is coming to cloud storage at IU, and we want to give you plenty of time to prepare. Box cloud storage will be retired as of March 2021. Student, faculty, and staff files will be migrated to Microsoft OneDrive or Google Drive. You can find more information and resources at https://uits.iu.edu/storage.
