ATTENTION: The temporary quota extension for Google Drive Storage is EXPIRING.
All UCLA Google Workspace users and shared drives must be within their Permanent Baseline Quota – or approved storage limit tier, for eligible affiliation groups – by April 7, 2026.
All users must take immediate action to ensure compliance.
All UCLA Google accounts that are not within their approved quota by April 7, 2026 will experience service interruptions.
If you have questions or concerns regarding your account, contact help@it.ucla.edu.
Google Workspace Storage Increase Requests
| Google workspace drive type | groups eligible for quota increase | request process |
|---|---|---|
| Personal | Faculty, Research, Academic Appointees | Submit the Google Workspace Storage Increase Request Form via ServiceNow |
| Shared | Registered Research Shared Drive (Registration Required) | Ensure your Shared Drive has been registered as a Research Shared Drive. If you have not already done so, please register your shared drive here. Only Registered Research Shared Drives will be approved for storage increase requests. Submit the Google Workspace Storage Increase Request Form via ServiceNow |
Note: Eligible groups may request incremental storage increases until the maximum storage allotment has been reached. Users who do not currently belong to the university affiliation groups outlined above are not eligible for storage increase requests at this time.
Shared Drives (Registration Required)
Shared Drives that are directly connected to university research and include research data are eligible for the extension through June 2026. However, registration is required.
If you own or manage a Shared Drive on behalf of your faculty mentor or the PI of a research project, and have not yet registered, please complete the Shared Drive Registration form.
