    Email & Office 365

    St. Thomas uses Microsoft Office for our campus email (Outlook), file storage (OneDrive), and more. Office comes pre-installed on all St. Thomas computers and is also available virtually through OneStThomas, our intranet.

    File Storage & Back-Up

    St. Thomas recommends using Office 365's file storage apps which can be accessed from any web browser. Editing Office 365 documents on your desktop automatically saves them to the cloud, and a backup of each file is created.
