Use of Google Applications at Concordia

Students at Concordia St. Paul primarily use Google Apps for e-mail functionality. Although you may already have a Google e-mail account (Gmail), this one is associated with Concordia University, St. Paul and is designated as a csp.edu e-mail account as opposed to a gmail.com e-mail account.

According to the policy of Concordia University, St. Paul, all official University communication goes to CSP e-mail accounts. Therefore, every student, as well as faculty, and staff members are responsible to read the information sent to their CSP account.
