Every student can install Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneDrive, Sharepoint, Office Online, OneNote, Publisher, and Access on up to five computers, five tablets, and five phones. Please note that Publisher and Access are available only for Windows computers.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How to access Microsoft Office<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To access this service, students should visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/getoffice.rutgers.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">getoffice.rutgers.edu<\/a>\u00a0and log in with their\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:netid@scarletmail.rutgers.edu\">netid@scarletmail.rutgers.edu<\/a> address and their NetID password. Please note: Rutgers Health students and students who have access to protected health information (PHI) must <a href=\"\/microsoft-office\/microsoft-office-for-faculty-and-staff\/\">use their Rutgers Connect\u00a0account<\/a> to install their licenses of Microsoft Office. For additional installation instructions, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/ithelp.rutgers.edu\/sp?id=kb_article&amp;sysparm_article=KB0012557\">Microsoft Office installation guide<\/a> in the Rutgers IT Help portal. Microsoft Office mobile apps are also available to download for iOS and Android devices:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/products.office.com\/en\/mobile\/office-mobile-apps-for-android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/products.office.com\/en\/mobile\/office-mobile-apps-for-android\">Office apps for Android<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/products.office.com\/en-us\/mobile\/office-mobile-apps-for-ios\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/products.office.com\/en-us\/mobile\/office-mobile-apps-for-ios\">Office apps for iOS<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>How long do I have the Microsoft Office products for?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>All students will have an active license to use Microsoft Office products while they are enrolled at Rutgers. Once a student graduates or departs the university, the student license will expire.<\/p>\n<p>If you have received a closure notice about losing your Microsoft Office account, then it\u2019s highly recommended that you review your use of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneDrive, and other products and transfer any important information to a new location. This includes any items that may be saved in OneDrive. These files should be moved to your own personal storage service. While you may not have access to Microsoft Office products moving forward, this account closure will not impact other email services. Alumni may be entitled to continuing email services on ScarletMail.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Support and additional resources<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>For assistance accessing Microsoft Office products, please contact\u00a0<a href=\"\/help-support\/\">your local Help Desk<\/a>. For assistance with Microsoft Office, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-us\">Microsoft Support webpage<\/a>. Additionally, training resources and video tutorials for Microsoft Office are available on <a href=\"\/linkedin-learning\/\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/learning\/\">LinkedIn Learning<\/a>, which is free for active students, faculty, staff, and affiliates at Rutgers. <a href=\"\/linkedin-learning\/\">Learn more and sign up for LinkedIn Learning<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><!-- f--field f--rich-text -->\n\n    <\/div><!-- c--component c--rich-text -->\n\n    <\/section><!-- cc--component-container cc--section -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"page-category":[],"class_list":["post-603","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 -
