Frequently Asked Questions

I signed up for Grammarly, but my account is not "Premium." What did I do wrong and how can I fix it?: You may have not completed account activation. Check your spam filter for the activation email, or log in at grammarly.com/edu/signin and request for the account activation email to be re-sent.; If this is not the problem, you likely signed up for your account through grammarly.com instead of grammarly.com/edu/signup.

I do not have an @huskers.unl.edu or @unl.edu email address. Can I still sign up for Grammarly?: As a full-time student, you can create an @huskers.unl.edu email address.
When I upload a document to Grammarly is the formatting lost?: No, if you use the upload function Grammarly will preserve the formatting of your document. However, if you copy and paste from your document to Grammarly, the formatting is lost. If you upload and download the document, you may need to remove comment bubbles from the document in Word.
