Microsoft outage on Friday 13 November

A global Microsoft outage is affecting our Outlook, Teams and other Microsoft 365 services at Middlesex. 

Our London campus is open and teaching is going ahead as normal. We’re working around the problems where we can. 

In an emergency 

Call the Emergency Response Line on 0208 411 6200 or visit the Security office in the College Building. We can’t receive emails at the moment, so please phone or come in person.  

Student assessments 

If your deadline is today, you won’t be penalised for submitting late because of the outage. We’ll set a new deadline on Monday 16 November. 

You won’t be able to email your teaching team. They are aware of the outage, so there’s no action for you to take.

Cybersecurity risk 

Scammers often take advantage of outages like this. Be extra careful with any unexpected call, text or message, especially one asking for your password or asking you to click a link. If you’re not sure it’s genuine, check with the sender in another way before you do anything. 

Other campuses

If you’re in Dubai, Mauritius or Hainan, look out for updates from your campus.
