However, you may find that you need use Microsoft apps such as Work, PowerPoint, and Excel instead in some courses. If you need to use Microsoft, use this guide to access tools.

Download Microsoft 365 Apps


If you need to download Microsoft 365 applications to your computer, you can also click the logo in the top-left corner of the Word, Excel, or PowerPoint webpages listed above to open a menu. Click Install Microsoft 365 apps

Please note: Microsoft 365 apps are not compatible with other Microsoft applications such as Microsoft 2017. If you already have another Microsoft application installed on your computer (such as Microsoft 2019), you will need to decide if you want to keep using the Microsoft applications you already have. If needed, you may need to remove older versions of Microsoft from your computer in order to use Microsoft 365 applications. These applications do have some differences. Please confirm with your instructor if there is a specific Microsoft version that is required to complete your course activities. This is especially when enrolled in specific Computer Science, CIS, courses.
