A: PSU uses Microsoft Outlook for all student, faculty, and staff email.  You can login to your GUSMail at the GUS Portal. At this location you will find all of PSU's core IT resources such as your FREE MS Office 365 account, Canvas, GUS Classic, Student Health, Live Chat, and much more!

Q: How do I make GUSMail my PSU Primary Email?

A: It is important to note that your GUSMail address (@gus.pittstate.edu)must be set as your Primary Email in order to enroll at PSU. To verify that it is, click here and login to the GUSMail Primary Email Page in GUS Classic using your PSU credentials.

If your GUSMail address is listed as your Primary Email address and you see no "Warning" (see pic A), you are good to go!  No changes are necessary.  You can close out of GUS Classic.

However, if you see the below "Warning" on the page (see pic B) letting you know that your GUSMail address is not listed as your Primary Email address. Please make your GUSMail address your Primary Email address by selecting Update Contact Email, entering your GUSMail address, and clicking Done.  This will allow you to enroll in PSU courses.
