Availability of Microsoft 365 at IU

Microsoft 365 is a subscription-based service that allows IU students, faculty, and staff to use the newest versions of Microsoft software on their personal Windows and macOS computers, on the web, and on smartphones and tablets with mobile apps. Your IU Microsoft 365 subscription allows you to install the software on up to five personal computers (Windows and macOS), five tablets (Windows, iPad, and Android), and five phones. You can use the software as long as your IU computing accounts are active; you are not entitled to use the software after you leave IU.

  • Desktop versions: Desktop versions for Windows and macOS are available:
    • For installation on personal computers, from Microsoft 365 at IU

      32-bit (recommended) and 64-bit versions are available for Windows. For installation instructions, see About Microsoft 365 at IU.

    • For use on computers in the IU Student Technology Centers (STCs)
    • For use on your personal computer via IUanyWare

      IUanyWare lets you run Microsoft 365 applications virtually in a web browser without having to install the applications locally and provides access to your IU Cloud Computing files. For more, see Set up and use IUanyWare.

  • Web-based apps: Web-based apps are available through Microsoft 365 and as integrated solutions within IU's SharePoint service.

    These apps are lightweight, browser-based versions of Microsoft 365 applications (including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote) with features such as real-time co-authoring and auto-saving. For a list of supported browsers, see Which browsers work with Microsoft 365 for the web and Microsoft 365 Add-ins.

  • Mobile apps: Apps for smartphones and tablets are available also from Microsoft 365 at IU. These are scaled-down, touch-optimized versions of Microsoft 365 applications (including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote) available for free from your device's app store.

    Sign into the mobile apps using your IU Microsoft 365 account to access your Microsoft OneDrive at IU storage space. To sign in with your IU Microsoft 365 account after installing a Microsoft app, open the app, and then, when prompted for an email address, enter your IU username followed by @iu.edu (for example, username@iu.edu).
