Email & Calendar

Comprehensive documentation on how to access and use the University's Office 365 email and calendar services as well as set up accounts in client software (such as Outlook) or on a mobile device.

Access your Office 365 email & calendar via a web browser (Recommended)

Log into Office 365

Enter your University Username (UUN) in the format uun@ed.ac.uk (for example: s1234567@ed.ac.uk or jbloggs@ed.ac.uk ), and your password.

This is the method the University recommends above all others as users log directly into the service instead of via a third-party client, thereby providing the most accurate and up-to-date access.

Connecting to Office 365 email & calendar via client software

If you wish to use an email client, the University strongly recommends using Outlook. As part of the University's Office 365 suite of services and applications, Outlook fully integrates and supports modern, more secure authentication.
