Setting up BCIT Email and Connecting to Exchange Online on Your Android Device

Using the Outlook app gives you access to additional functionality that isn’t available in other apps, including the ability to manage your shared mailboxes and calendars and to download attachments on calendar events.

Note: If you were previously using the Outlook Android app with different settings – such as prior to your BCIT email account being migrated to Exchange Online in 2022 or with a different BCIT email address due to a name change – you will need to remove your previous profile before you will be able to connect. If you encounter difficulties with removing your profile it may be simplest to delete the app and all of its data and start again.

To use the Outlook Android app, on your device:

1. Go to the Google Play store and install the Microsoft Outlook app.
2. Open the app and tap Get Started.
3. Outlook may detect your Google accounts and ask if you want to add them to the app. Tap Skip to proceed to adding an account.
4. Enter your primary BCIT email address, then tap Continue.
5. You will be directed to BCIT-branded login page with your email address filled in. Enter your usual password and tap the Sign In button.

You should now be able to access your BCIT email in the Outlook app.
