Your ISU Email Account (Powered by Microsoft 365)

Iowa State’s email platform is Microsoft Outlook (https://outlook.iastate.edu), not Gmail. Your Outlook account was automatically created after you received your Net-ID, and your Iowa State email address is: [Your Net-ID]@iastate.edu. Your Outlook account can be accessed through your Sign On Dashboard at login.iastate.edu. It can also be added as an app to your phone, tablet or computer.

All communication from Iowa State offices will go to your Iowa State Outlook (not a previously-used email account). This can include correspondence from Admissions, Financial Aid, the Registrar’s Office, your academic adviser, your instructors and others. In other words, you are responsible for the information that is sent to you. Learn more about using Outlook.

Important Tip

You should check your ISU Outlook account daily, as it is the primary way of departmental communication on campus. It is recommended that you set up Outlook email on your mobile device to stay in touch with all communications from ISU.
