Office 365
What is Office 365?
Office 365 is Microsoft’s cloud-based email and file storage service. Each student, faculty member, and staff member is provided with a free MC Microsoft Office 365 account.
With Office 365, you get:
- 50 GB of email storage space.
- 500 GB of personal file storage space in OneDrive
- Access to Microsoft Office online apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.)
- Ability to install MS Office on up to five personal devices for free
What happens to my Office 365 account after I graduate or leave the college?
Your Office 365 subscription ends when you graduate or leave the college. (At that time, your Office applications will switch to a reduced-functionality mode, and you will be presented with the option to purchase your own subscription.)
