1. Setting Up Your Student Email

Student Email Account

All students at CSUSM are provided access to a student "Cougars" email address which they can access through Microsoft Outlook. The login is username@csusm.edu and the same password you use for your MyCSUSM account.

Your campus email account (also referred to as your cougars email) will be created in April for Fall admits and November for Spring admits, once you have accepted your offer of admissions.

Faculty, staff, and students can access their email through a couple different methods:

  • Online:
  • Mobile device:
    • iOS / Android:  Campus email can be configured on your personal or campus device by following the instructions in the hyperlink
    • Outlook app (found in your device's "app store")
  • Desktop Application:
  • (Faculty & Staff only)
    Microsoft Outlook: Please contact Technology Support services by phone or email (helpdesk@csusm.edu / 760.750.4790) for help setting up your Outlook profile on your campus-issued computer.
