Zoom Sign-On

All members of the Rivier University community are entitled to use Zoom. Students will have access to Zoom Basic for videoconferencing and chat. Zoom Basic allows unlimited 1:1 meetings with video chat, sessions with up to 3 members, and a limit of 40 minutes per session. All faculty and some staff will have a paid Zoom License that allows communication with an entire class or individuals outside of the Rivier University community. If you need a paid Zoom license and don’t believe you have one already, please email itsupport@rivier.edu. Alternatively, you can consider Microsoft Teams, which is available to all Rivier University faculty, staff, and students and has no time or user limits per session.
