Office 365 is a cloud-based service that provides all Cal Poly students, faculty, staff and emeritus an account to access their university email and calendar through a web browser, desktop client, or mobile device. An Office 365 email account provides 50 GB of storage. Learn More.
Students new to the university in the fall quarter get access to email and Office 365 in mid to late July.

Features
| Email Feature | Value or Attribute |
|---|---|
| Email Quota | 50GB |
| Email Attachment Quota | 25MB |
| Email Recipient Quota | In Office 365, the recipient limit is 500 per message. That includes the To, Cc, and Bcc fields combined. The daily limit is 10,000 recipients in a 24 hour period. Email accounts are also restricted to 30 messages per minute (which applies to mail merge software, etc.). Create a Sympa list for large mailings since sending to a Sympa distribution list only counts as one (1) recipient and one (1) message. |
