  1. N: Drive - your computer will automatically connect to the N: drive as if you were on campus. 
    1. To determine if you are connected, click on the the wireless or wired symbol in the system tray (bottom right on computer desktop), Then look for JMU Workplace Connection Connected. If you don't see the words connected, wait 5 minutes, try again later or reboot your computer and give it time to connect.
  2. If you have been previously authorized, you also will have access to the following systems:
    • Finance
    • Human Resources
    • Student Administration
