Email and Google Workspace
Oberlin uses Google Workspace to power its email and provide online tools and services like Calendar, Drive, and Hangouts.
Your primary Oberlin email address is ObieID@oberlin.edu. To log in, go to gmail.com and enter this address—don’t forget the @oberlin.edu part—and your ObieID password.
Remember that you’ll need to set a password of your choice before checking your email for the first time. Didn’t do that yet? Go to okta.oberlin.edu and follow the onscreen instructions to establish a password.
