Installing the Office 365 Suite

With the University's Microsoft license, we are able to offer the entire Office 365 suite to our students, faculty, and staff. This document describes how to download the apps to your computer.

Step-by-step guide

  1. Open a browser and navigate to Westminster's homepage

  2. Click the waffle menu at the top right and select either “Current Student Resources” or “Faculty and Staff Resources”.

  3. Click on the box labeled, “Email”. This will take you to your Outlook email.

  4. Click on the your name at the top-right of the page that has your profile circle next to it.

  5. Select “View Account” from the drop down menu.

  6. On the left-hand side of the page, select “My apps”.

  7. Click the 3x3 waffle menu in the top left corner, then select “Microsoft 365 ->” from the menu that opens. This will take you to a new page.

  8. Click the box labeled, “Install and more” in the top right and select “Install Microsoft 365 apps”. This will take you to yet another page.

  9. On this new page, select “Install Office”. This will begin downloading the installer file.

  10. Once the installer file is done downloading, run the installer* and follow the on-screen prompts to begin the installation process.

    1. *This is done differently depending on what browser you are using. For Chrome, the installer will show up in the bottom-left of your screen once you begin downloading. For Firefox, you will have to select “Save File” once the installer has been downloaded, then a separate box will pop up and you’ll need to select “Open”. Then follow the onscreen prompts to begin the installation process.

 

Please note this license is only available while you are a current student, staff, and faculty member. Once you have left the University you will no longer have access to these apps through the University.
