Get Started
IMPORTANT: Steps 1 and 2 are only necessary for older accounts not yet migrated to the Office 365 email system. If your account is created in the fall semester of 2019 onwards, you already have Office 365 enabled. Please proceed to step 3. This also applies to older accounts (created before the fall semester of 2019) that have been moved to Office 365 email.
- Activate your Office 365 subscription.
- Choose Office 365 (it can take up to 12 hours before you are able to download Office).
- Log on to the Office 365 portal (office.du.se). There you can find OneDrive, Forms and online versions of Office programmes.
- Download the Office package from the portal. You can also download the package directly from Microsoft or Apple store. You then activate the installation by logging onto Office with your university account. In the Mac App store, the package is called “Microsoft Office 365” and in Microsoft Store it is called “Office”.
- Install the programme.
