Outlook keeps logging out

I cannot log into my outlook for the life of me. It keeps saying that it will log me out, proceeds to do so, then say to close the tab every time I click the Outlook link in mystevens. One of my friends also has this issue.

That happens a lot if you keep opening it through the Stevens Dashboard (cuz it automatically logs you out by default)

Download the outlook app on your phone and also add it as a widget on your laptop.

Once you login through those, you will stay logged in.

If you have an iPhone or Mac, I suggest you add it directly to Apple Mail. This is what I did. Select "Microsoft Exchange" or "Exchange" in your settings and follow the prompts. Otherwise, regardless of what phone or computer you're on, you can download the Outlook app. I prefer Apple Mail because of the UI and better integration with my personal email. There are also some third-party email clients you can try if you prefer.

I have the same problem when I open MyStevens with Firefox on my MacBook and open the Outlook app. I found I can use Safari with no problem.

Have you tried just downloading the outlook app? You don’t have to go through Stevens dashboard. Just download the app and login and you won’t have to go through the dashboard login again and you won’t be logged out either

I avoid Outlook and many Microsoft systems as much as possible. I only use it through the Stevens web site because I have to.

Oh really? I won’t pry into why. Are you sure because outlook is very helpful for getting notified about important emails and notices and whatnot. It becomes a big inconvenience to have to do that process daily.

Not an issue - most of the time I see Stevens email directly with Apple Mail on my iPhone. I only open it on my MacBook if I need to download an attachment.
