Using a web browser
You can access your email via the internet by using the Outlook on the Web. This is useful when you are out and about, or working from home.
Accessing email
- Go to: https://outlook.office.com. This takes you to a Microsoft login page
- In the login box enter your Oxford username followed by @OX.AC.UK in capitals. You won’t need a password
- You will be redirected to the Oxford Single Sign-On (SSO) login page
- Log in as usual with your SSO account details
- You may be prompted for multi-factor authentication
Using an email client
Getting set up
Configure your email client of choice. Follow the steps at our configure email page.
Accessing email
- Open your email client (for example Outlook)
- Log in using your Oxford username followed by @OX.AC.UK (capitals are essential) and your Single Sign-On password. You’ll generally be able to save your password so it doesn’t need to be typed in every time
- You may be prompted for multi-factor authentication
Using Nexus365 apps
If you want to access other Nexus365 apps, as well as email, go to https://office.com and follow the same login process as using a web browser.
You can also get to the apps via the app launcher in Outlook (the ‘waffle’ icon at the top left).
