Notes:

• In some instances you may not be prompted to enter your CUNY Login credentials. This may happen if you’re currently logged into OneDrive or Teams on your computer. It will depend on the version of Windows and other applications you’re running. But if you’re not prompted to log in and you have other Microsoft apps logged in with your CUNY Login credentials that is normal
• The menu items above may look slightly different whether you have Office 2019 or the Office 365 version of Outlook installed on your computer. Most Baruch office desktops have Office 2019; if you downloaded Outlook on your home computer to use during the pandemic you probably have Office 365.
• These instructions do not work for Office 2016 or earlier. Office 2019 or later is the supported version of Outlook for access to M365.
• You do not need to use the Baruch VPN to access either your current baruch.cuny.edu Exchange email or the login.cuny.edu M365 mailbox.
