  Hello,

  I created a wordpress account back in 2012 using a school email. I forgot password and can’t access my school email due to graduating a few years ago. Is there a way to get access to my account (justatasteoffashion.wordpress.com).

  Then you must complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery so you can be contacted by email ie. not on these public support forums, which are available to everyone with internet access. Support Staff cannot breach the privacy policy and provide the log-in information. You have to provide proof ownership to Account Recovery Staff to gain access https://en.support.wordpress.com/account-recovery/

  Be sure to use the Extra Details section at the bottom of that form. Provide the email address that you cannot access but used to register.
