How Do I Sign In?
If you already have Office 365 installed, take advantage of all of the products by signing in with your BYUI account.
- If there is no account linked yet:
- Go to the "Sign In" option on the top right of the document
- Enter your BYUI email
- You will need to authenticate on the byui.edu page, which may include authentication with Duo
- If there is an account already open:
- Go to "File"
- Go to "Account" on the bottom left of the screen
- Locate your personal account and sign out of it
- Sign in with your BYUI account using your BYUI email
Although Office 365 allows you to simply "Sign in with a different account," we recommend only having the BYUI account linked at one time, as sometimes having multiple accounts can create errors or malfunctions. |
What Versions of Office are Available?
Office 365 is available through BYUI to download or use online. It includes Office applications that you are familiar with—like Word, PowerPoint, and Excel—plus extra online storage and more. Employees and students are eligible for downloading Office 365. Visit the Downloading & Installing Microsoft Office 365 for Free for more information.
Office 2019 and Office 2021 also used to be available through BYUI as a one-time purchase. However they are no longer offered. If you have previously purchased Office 2019 or 2021, you can continue to access them with your product key. If you have lost your product key, contact IT to get help recovering it.
