Brown uses GSuite for its collaboration and productivity tools. All members of the Brown community, except some affiliates and summer students, receive a Google account which they can use to access the following apps.
While you can use the links below to access your apps, they are also available from a menu you'll see after you have logged in to your mail. For instructions, see the article Access Apps in Google.
Brown's core suite of Google Apps are covered by a policy agreement that provides higher levels of security, privacy, and prohibits advertisements. We are able to put in support tickets with Google if you have issues with these apps.
"Consumer Apps" are apps that you can use with your Brown.edu email address, but that do not fall under Brown's contract with Google. In some cases, these consumer apps may display ads, products may change without notice, and uptime is not guaranteed. CIS may not have the expertise to support these and we cannot put in tickets with Google if you have issues. Remember that the access and use of these consumer apps still falls under the Brown Acceptable Use Policy.
The following apps are limited to certain members of the Brown community based on use case. To request access, you can submit a request. Please include detailed information about why you need access.
Some of these apps are not available for the Brown domain - in other words, we are not able to turn them on for brown.edu accounts. Others are available but not enabled because of an associated risk or overlap in functionality with other products offered at Brown.
