Accessing Email and College Learning Tools Remotely
Learning online is an adjustment that College of DuPage wants to make as simple as
possible for you. From accessing student email to Blackboard to knowing what's available
online at the Library, we've got you covered!
Working remotely, it’s more important than ever that students use their dupage.edu
email. Outlook often organizes emails into two categories: Focused and Other. Be sure
to check both categories of emails so you are receiving the latest news. Visit
Student Email
