Based on the most helpful WSO content, using your personal Gmail for cold emails is perfectly fine and, in some cases, even preferred. Gmail offers better archiving features compared to most school email systems, and it allows for a more professional and streamlined experience. Just ensure that your email address is professional (e.g., [email protected]) and not something casual or inappropriate.
Additionally, if your school email address is long, hard to pronounce, or otherwise cumbersome, using Gmail can make your communication more efficient and approachable.
