Installing Microsoft Office 365

Students (and employees) can download and install the current Microsoft Office Suite (for Windows or MacOS) on up to 5 devices for free.

Simply log in to your Colby-Sawyer Office 365 email account, and click the "waffle" or apps icon at upper left corner. On the resulting menu, click "Office 365" at the upper right. Click the "Install Office" button at the upper right, then click "Office 365 apps". The system will pop up instructions to walk you through the download and installation.

Be sure you have a good connection to internet and a fully charged battery (or plug in power adapter) as the process will take a while.

Note: Chromebooks, tablets and iPads cannot use this installation process. Please visit whatever app store is available for your device. Alternatively, the Office web apps can be used in lieu of installed desktop versions.
