What is Microsoft 365?
Microsoft 365, formerly known as Microsoft Office, is a collection of Microsoft production apps: Microsoft Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneDrive, and more. Your campus license also comes with 1TB of cloud storage for all of these file types.
Campus-managed devices have these applications installed when you receive them, but students, staff, and faculty may prefer to install the applications on their personal devices as well. They can also access the Web Apps online, without having to install anything.
Active faculty, students, and state-side staff can follow the steps below to walk through installing Microsoft 365 apps on a personal device.
Installing Microsoft 365
- Navigate to Office.com and click "Sign in" located in the middle of the page
- When prompted to enter an email, enter your username@csuchico.edu.
- Enter your Chico password, and click "Yes" on the "Stay signed in?" box. You may be prompted for Duo to complete the sign-in.
- On the next screen, you should see an "Install and more" drop-down on the right side.
- Click "Install Microsoft 365 apps" and it should begin downloading an installer package.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to finish installing Microsoft 365 on your device.
- 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" (see below for an example).
