One Step Ahead: Accessing PennO365, 24/7

Another tip in a series provided by the 
Offices of Information Systems & Computing 
and Audit, Compliance & Privacy.

Many members of the University are now using PennO365 for their email and calendaring, leveraging the service’s numerous tools to collaborate with others at Penn, and taking advantage of the free Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus licenses available for use on personal computers and mobile devices.

To access any PennO365 resource, you simply use your PennO365 account. You can log in to your PennO365 account by providing your PennO365 user name and password. 

User name: Your PennO365 user name takes the format of your_pennKey_user_name@upenn.edu (e.g., franklin@upenn.edu). This user name should not be confused with your actual PennKey or email address, a common mistake given the formatting of the PennO365 user name.

Password: Note that your PennO365 password is not the same thing as your PennKey password, and that you should always be using distinctly different passwords for these two accounts. Should you forget your PennO365 password, go to the following page to reset it: https://office365.password.isc.upenn.edu

After logging in with your PennKey user name and password, you can view the PennO365 Password Policy (if needed) and set or reset your password.  As with any password, it is important to set a strong password and never share it with anyone under any circumstances.
