Virtual Private Network (VPN)
Many Penn State applications do not require a VPN connection, such as Office 365 (Outlook, Teams, OneDrive, etc.), Box, Zoom, University websites, and enterprise applications (Canvas, Workday, Concur, eBuy, etc.). First, try connecting to the application or webpage without a VPN connection. If it fails, secure a VPN connection.
If you do not have the VPN software installed on your device, visit https://softwarerequest.psu.edu/ and select 'Connecting to Penn State” and then “VPN – Virtual Private Network (AnyConnect).”
