How-To

 

Instructions

Step 1 - Open a web browser.

Recommended browsers: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari.

Step 2 - To access the Microsoft 365 (M365) Portal Home, navigate to https://portal.office.com 

Note: to go directly into Outlook on the Web, navigate to https://outlook.office.com instead.

Note: your email is also available through your campus portal at https://my.usnh.edu .

If you are already logged into the USNH System, you may not have to sign in again.  Skip to Step 5 below.

Step 3 - For your email address, enter or click on your username@usnh.edu (fully qualified username, example: jbd2519@usnh.edu) and click Next

Step 4 - You will see the USNH Enter Password page. Enter your password and click Sign In.  

• If required, verify your identity with one of your multi-factor authentication (MFA) sign-in methods.

Step 5 - You will land at the Microsoft 365 (M365) Portal Home page, where you can quickly access recently used docs, see recommended documents, and open any M365 apps using the Navigation Bar on the left and the 9-dot "waffle" in the top left corner.

To access Email from the Microsoft 365 Portal Home, click on the blue Outlook Icon in the left navigation bar

 

Step 6 - To access other M365 apps, click on them in the left Navigation Bar or in the 9-dot "Waffle" in the upper left corner.  SharePoint and OneDrive are available under the 9-dot "Waffle".

 

Outcome

You will be passed over into Outlook on the Web, part of the unified M365 environment.  You will be able to read and send email, view your calendar and contacts, and access your web-based files through the OneDrive or SharePoint apps (through the 9-dot "waffle" in the upper left corner).
