  Hi rosauram,

  No problem, the domain can remain registered with Google and mapped to eascholarship.wordpress.com with these steps:

  As long as the MX records remain in place (they direct the emails), your emails should continue working. The spf TXT record should also stay if you are using G Suite for email. Google should be able to help you change the DNS from their end though :)
