SSO
What is the SSO and how do I sign in?
The Single Sign On (SSO) is Loyola's application portal for faculty, staff and students. It provides links to applications, such as Lora Self Service, Canvas, Medicat, Zoom, Parking Services, HowlConnect, Handshake and more.
For new students, faculty and staff , it is important that you go to office.com and login to your Loyola Microsoft account first. You will be forced to change our Microsoft password. Once your Microsoft password has been changed, it will sync to your SSO account.
