Office365 on your Chromebook

  • Chromebooks currently support the use of Microsoft 365 web apps


What happens when I leave the college?

  • If you graduate from the college, your student account remains active for 1 calendar year after your last enrolled quarter. We recommend transferring files as soon as possible after graduation to avoid any lost files after your account is deprovisioned.
  • If you withdraw from the college, your student account is deprovisioned around week 3 of the first quarter you're no longer enrolled. That is, if you last attended Fall quarter, your student account and all associated tech resources will be deprovisioned in week 3 of Winter quarter. We recommend transferring files before the start of the next quarter to avoid any lost files after your account is deprovisioned.
