BGSU Email & Calendar

BGSU provides an official university email account as part of the BGSU Account given to all staff, faculty, students and maintained for alumni and retirees. Official university correspondence is sent through email and faculty, staff and students will need to access this email account on a regular and timely basis in order to stay current with university related communications.

All BGSU email account addresses follow the format of: username@bgsu.edu. The BGSU cloud-based email system provides users with access to email, communication and collaboration services that may be accessed by mobile, desktop, and web-based applications.

All BGSU faculty, staff and students are provided a BGSU email account. However, as one's affiliation with the university changes, account access does the same. The BGSU Account Status Timeline webpage outlines how BGSU email access may alter based on various status changing scenarios.

File Share

University File Sharing services provide shared storage space and access to University documents from a single location to enhance collaboration. Access to the file shares are restricted to specific users and groups as specified by the owner(s) of the shared space. The amount of storage space made available from file shares is negotiated between ITS and the requesting department. Documents stored within the file shares are backed up nightly to prevent data loss. Files sharing services are available to both Windows and Apple computers from on-campus locations.

MyBGSU

The MyBGSU portal is designed to be a one-stop shop for access to information from all web-based campus software systems. The portal houses all of the available BGSU self-service links in a way that is easily navigable and meaningful to the user. Upon logging in with your BGSU username and password, you can access a variety of campus services, including your BGSU email, Canvas, Student Center, employee information and much more.

One unique feature of the user-friendly web portal is the new “Quick Links” tool, which includes a searchable list of all links accessible to the user. Each Quick Links view is specifically tailored to the individual user based on current BGSU status and is accessible from every page within MyBGSU for added convenience.

To learn more about navigating the MyBGSU portal, and to access valuable tools, we recommend you watch our MyBGSU video training series available at the link below.
