Unfortunately access to Outlook App or desktop email software is not supported for students at this time.

The Outlook app no longer stores the username and password credentials on US servers which violated the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FoIPoP).  As a result we have now allowed the Outlook app to access the RRU email server.  

Instructions to follow.Please note that installing the application to access your email may update some settings automatically on your mobile device to ensure the proper security settings are enabled.  This can include, but not limited to, ensuring there is a passcode (or biometrics) to unlock the device and that the device locks after 10 minutes or less of inactivity.

Step-by-step guide

  • Open Word and make sure you have logged into Office 365 on the iPad/iPhone with your RRU Office 365 username (username@royalroads,ca, not your email address) and password
  • If you are signed in, Open Outlook.
  • It should add the account automatically

    • Description - Optional, I recommend "RRU"
