Sandhills provides all students a free Microsoft O365 license. Please note if you currently have a Microsoft license that you purchased on your own and you plan to use the school’s license, you may have to uninstall your version of Microsoft before performing the following steps.
- Go to MySCC homepage.
- Click on the “Webmail” option.
- Login using your Sandhills email and password.
- In the upper right-hand corner, select your initials or it may be your profile picture.
- Select the “View Account” option.
- On the left-hand navigation window, select “Office Apps”.
- Under “Office apps & devices” select “Install Office”.
- An OfficeSetup.exe file should either appear at the bottom of your browser or in your Downloads folder with a pop up window explaining the rest of the process. For clarity, I have included those steps below.
- Double-click the setup file.
- A popup window will appear. Select “Yes”.
- Office will begin downloading. It may take awhile.
If you come across any trouble with the installation process you can review their troubleshooting page or submit a ticket to the Sandhills IT Department.
