Get Ready for Bruin Connect & Office 365 Updates

Bruin Connect will be receiving an upgrade as part of Microsoft’s global update of Multi-factor Authentication requirements. This upgrade will introduce two changes: one for the Bruin Connect login page, and one that may change the way you log in to Bruin Connect.

The first upgrade will take place on Monday, March 3, for the Bruin Connect login page. These changes will include:

• The "Security Image" associated with your Bruin Connect account, currently visible on the login page underneath the Bellevue University logo, will be REMOVED.
• The hidden links displayed under "Need help signing in?" will be auto-expanded, making them visible at all times.

The second upgrade will happen on Wednesday, March 5, as new Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) requirements will be implemented for Microsoft 365. After this upgrade, when signing in or accessing Microsoft 365 through Bruin Connect, whether on or off-campus, you may be prompted to complete a multifactor authentication (MFA) challenge after logging in through BRUIN Connect. These MFA prompts will occur at least once every 30 days.

Upgrade Schedule

Bruin Connect (login page): March 3, 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM CST
Microsoft 365 Requirements (MFA): March 5, 5:30 PM to 9:30 PM CST

Bruin Connect will remain available during these times, but users may experience brief periods of intermittent connectivity!
