Microsoft 365 Overview
Microsoft 365, formerly known as Microsoft Office, is a collection of Microsoft productivity apps: Microsoft Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneDrive, and more. Your campus license also includes 1 TB of cloud storage for these file types.
Campus-managed devices have these applications installed when you receive them, but students, staff, and faculty may also install the applications on personal devices. You can also access the web apps online without installing anything.
Active faculty, students, and state-side staff can follow the steps below to install Microsoft 365 apps on a personal device.
Microsoft 365 Installation
- Go to Office.com and click Sign in.
- Enter your Chico State email address and Portal password to sign in and approve the login with Duo.
- On the Microsoft 365 home screen, click Apps in the left sidebar.
- Click Install Apps in the top right corner, then select Microsoft 365 apps.
- The app installer will begin downloading. Follow the on-screen instructions to finish installing Microsoft 365 on your device.
For Windows devices: When you see a message that says "Stay signed in to all your apps". Make sure you uncheck the box for "Allow my organization to manage my device", then click No, sign in to this app only.
