Overview
Office 365 is a cloud-based productivity tool that integrates all of the features you need to collaborate with your team. As a student or employee of Cedar Crest College, you receive this subscription for free. It includes the Microsoft Office Suite, 50 GB of email, unlimited storage space in OneDrive, and more!
One of the greatest benefits of our Office 365 subscription is that everyone -- faculty, staff and students -- can install Microsoft Office applications on up to 5 devices at one time. You can install it on a desktop, a laptop, your iPad -- anywhere Office can run, you can install it.
