What is Cloud Migration?

Multiple user accounts, emails, and information are stored within timely servers. This migration will move the accounts to Office 365 and be associated with a cloud server. This will provide a seamless working experience with Microsoft Office as well as a growing number of cloud-related applications and programs.


What Should I do to Prepare?

Cloud migration is a default process, and no specific arrangements will need to be completed by you, the user. During the migration process your account and email services will remain active. Once the migration is complete there may be a few steps to complete it to begin full operation, and these processes will be outlined below.

Common Issues and Solutions

  • Cannot Access Webmail

Once your account has been moved to the cloud, you will need to access your email by signing in at https://go.westernu.edu with your full WesternU email address and current password.

Once logged in, click the icon labelled Outlook. This new tab can be saved/bookmarked for easier access in the future. You can also use the full shortcut of go.westernu.edu/mail to directly access your e-mail.
