The first time you open a Microsoft 365 Office application on an on-campus lab computer, you’ll be asked to sign in with your Cal Poly credentials. This is a one-time sign-in/setup and you won’t be asked to sign in again on the specific computer. Follow the steps below to complete the setup.

 

  1. Start the Microsoft Office 365 Application you want to use. A Sign in to set up Office prompt will appear on the screen.

  2. Click Sign in.

    Microsoft. Sign in to set up Office. Sign in is highlighted
  3. Type your Cal Poly email address, then click Next. If asked, be sure to choose your Work/School Account not Personal.

    Microsoft. Activate Office. Calpoly email is entered. Next button is highlighted

     

  4. Enter your Cal Poly portal login info, then click Login. You will then get an MFA/Duo message sent to your mobile device for approval to proceed.

     

  5. Now you are set up to run Office 365 Applications on the computer.
