Office 365 - Outlook on the Web (OWA)

Outlook Web App Link

Your login and password for email will be different for Office 365. Email passwords will now be synced with your network login account. When you change your network password, your email password will automatically be updated as well. Your network, email, Canvas, Jenzabar, Astra, and Library Journal access will all use the same password.

  • Login Name: College email address, ie, jasmith@cedarcrest.edu or Jane.Smith@cedarcrest.edu
  • Password: Network login password. This is the same password used to access campus computers and Canvas.

The Microsoft links below will help you get started with using your Office 365 account through the Outlook Web App.

For directions on connecting your email to your mobile device's mail app, visit the Office 365 on your Mobile Device page.
