Learn how to view your disk usage by following these steps.

Request more disk space

All requests for disk space are subject to review. You can request to have your disk space increased in either of two ways:

  • Use the online form.
    You will be prompted for your BU login name and Kerberos password. If you are a student, you will be asked to provide the name of your faculty sponsor.

  • Use the print form.
    This form is in PDF format and includes instructions. Note: If you are a student, you must have the course professor or your advisor sign the form before you submit it.
