Android Users - How to set up your student email on your Android device?

Starting June 28th, 2023, all communications from San Diego Community College District (including messages from instructors) will be sent to your @student.sdccd.edu email address. Besides Microsoft Outlook (for student email), we will also be using Microsoft Office 365 to provide students access to cloud storage, and access to the Microsoft Office Suite of apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.).

Students must be actively enrolled for the semester to be qualified for their SDCCD student email. Access will be removed once a student stops attending for 4 semesters consecutively.
