Please note: We provide these instructions in an effort to help, but cannot guarantee that Apple, Google, or any of the various phone manufacturers will not make a change that interrupts your access to your account on your mobile device. We recommend - and fully support - viewing your email account using a modern, updated web browser.

Excerpt

Before you begin

The Terms of Service for using Google Apps is only available on the web, so before you set the account up on a mobile device, you will need to access your Drew Google account on the web. You only need to do this once, so if you've already logged in to your Google Apps account, you do not need to repeat this step.

1. Sign into your Drew Google account on the web. The easiest way is to simply go to http://mail.drew.edu.

2. Be sure to accept the Google Terms of Service and complete the "CAPTCHA."   

3. Proceed to the instructions for your device.

Faculty/staff users:  Under our policy on the responsible handling of University data, Android users who connect their Drew account to their device are required to install and configure the Android Device Policy app for their device.  This will allow Drew to lock or wipe the device in the event that it is lost or stolen, and will allow Drew to protect sensitive University data that might be available in Gmail, Drive, or stored on the device.

You will be prompted to install the app when adding your Drew email to your phone.

In the event your device is lost or stolen, you can go to https://www.google.com/apps/mydevices/ to locate the device on a map, activate an alarm, remotely lock the device, or remotely wipe it. University Technology can also wipe the device remotely if desired.
