Yes. You are able to access CSN Email and online versions of Office by utilizing the CSN Email login above, accessing it through GoCSN, or by going to Outlook Online. From there you can choose to access Mail or any of the other available applications. Currently we have migrated nearly 99% of faculty and staff; however, until we have reached 100% an additional login or link may need to be clicked.

Internet access is required to install and activate all the latest releases of the Office suite. Internet access is also required to check your CSN email; however, it's not required to use the Office applications such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint if the applications are fully installed on your computer.

How to setup Exchange Online Email on a Mobile Device/Tablet

Microsoft offers the Outlook App for mobile devices and tablets: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-com/mobile/. This app can be used on iPhones, Android phones, and tablets. It provides the best email experience for your mobile devices and is highly recommended for seamless mobile connectivity. Using the Outlook App, you only need to input in your email address and password; no other information is required.

For students:

Your username is your NSHEID.

When you log in to GoCSN, Canvas, MyCSN, campus computers, or other CSN systems, you use your NSHE ID.  To log in to your CSN Email account you need to indicate to Microsoft which email/school you belong to so you need to include "@student.csn.edu".  So to log in to your CSN Email your username will be "NSHEID@student.csn.edu" . Use the same password you use to log into GoCSN.  Whenever being asked to log in to a system, use your username/NSHEID.

For convenience when communicating with others, CSN provides an email address as an alias to your username.  Your email address is  "FirstName.LastName@csn.edu", except in rare cases where a number (e.g. 01) is added to the end. This happens when you have the same name as another student, and you are informed about this address at the time you validate the account. You can find your alias email address using a couple of methods:

1. Email your personal account from your CSN account.  It will display your email address in your personal account.
2. Log in to your email, click your profile picture in the upper right (may be only your initials), click My Account, and then click Personal Details.  Your email address will be listed under Contact details.

The ability to forward your student email account to another email address is not available. It is important to regularly log in and check your CSN Email to find important messages related to Financial Aid, Campus events, and more.
