Online Tools for Students

Being a new college student means taking in a lot of new information. We know that there are many offices, services, and resources to navigate. To help you with resources, here we provide a jumping-off point to commonly used online student tools. Many of these can be accessed with your RIC Single Sign-On (SSO) Account and others require unique login credentials. RIC SSO Account services are provided by Microsoft 365.
