When I go to gmail.com it automatically redirects me to my school email login, which is somehow linked. I have logged out of this, and even when I click on my gmail profile it automatically redirects here. Very irritating, is there any way to fix this without having to clear cache/cookies? I really do not want to delete all of my passwords.
Got a tip for us?

iPhone X Safari keeps redirecting me to my school website when I try to go to gmail, even after logging out

Not sure, unless you access your school mail a lot and Safari has started to automatically redirect because of such. I don't use Gmail.
I am at a loss. Maybe someone else will chime in and provide much needed insight.
Try going to settings/safari/advanced/website data.
Once you are there, it may take a moment for the page to load. After it does, search for gmail and you should then see gmail.com listed below. Swipe left on gmail.com to delete the website data for gmail.com.
That should clear up the issue.

Hmm I can’t seem to find Gmail in there. I found my school website and deleted that, didn’t fix the issue though.
You can try deleting all website data, but be aware that you will have to login to websites again and pinned tabs will be lost
Delete all website data by deleting all history. You won't lose your passwords. Those are stored somewhere else.
I delete all my history every day, or any time after I have to use non-private browsing. Passwords are unaffected.

You are correct. Passwords are stored in keychain. However, you will have to log in to all websites again as all cookies are deleted.
If this doesn’t work, whats my next move? Because I’m pretty sure I’ve done this recently and this issue has been going on for a while.
I’m out of suggestions. Maybe call Apple Support to see if they have any ideas
I thought I found a potential solution but wasn’t sure it was applicable, but on second look, some on this thread say clearing browser cache solved it. Take a look.
Why does admin.google.com redirect to my university's Google Apps?
I work at a university. All students get a third party Gmail and Google Apps account but staff do not. Now I can't administer my domains that are expiring. Every time I try to go to admin.google.co...

Clearing your browser cache effectively logs you out of any websites you are logged in to (MacRumors for example). Websites keep you logged in via cookies so that when you close your browser, you don't have to continually log back in to the site.
When you clear the cache, you delete all the cookies, so you are effectively logged out of all websites and any setting for those sites are also deleted.
If you are keeping your passwords in iCloud keychain then clearing the cache does not remove them from iCloud keychain. But, you will have to re-enter your passwords in the login pages of any sites you login to.
hope this helps
Check settings/your name/iCloud/keychain. This should be on if you are using keychain to save your passwords,
Then go to settings/passwords and you can see what passwords are saved.
I would recommend that if you have concerns about doing any of this, contact apple support. They can walk you through the process and help ensure that you do not inadvertently delete your passwords.
