Mobile Apps for Students
To help students connect with campus resources and to support their educational goals, CSULB provides current students with access to the following mobile apps.
These apps make it easier for you to accomplish many common student tasks from your phone, including accessing online tools, scheduling appointments, and attending events. These apps are free to download and use.
Students are required to use multi-factor authentication when accessing online campus resources through CSULB Single Sign-On (Microsoft My Apps). Multi-factor authentication provides important additional security by preventing anyone but you from logging in, even if another person knows your password.
The Microsoft Authenticator app makes it easy for you to confirm that it's you logging in.
