A Quick Scheduling Solution

Microsoft Bookings is available to all Mississippi State University faculty, staff and students as part of Microsoft 365 and provides a fast, convenient way to manage appointments and meetings. Because it integrates directly with Outlook, Bookings reflects your real‑time availability and helps reduce scheduling conflicts.

Bookings offers two page formats to fit your needs:

• Personal Bookings for sharing your individual availability.
• Shared Bookings for teams or departments that coordinate schedules collectively.

Each Bookings page provides a customizable scheduling interface where users can view available appointment types and select times that best meet their needs. The platform automatically sends appointment confirmations and reminder notifications, reducing the likelihood of missed meetings and providing a more efficient experience for both staff and attendees. For virtual appointments, Bookings integrates with Microsoft Teams to automatically generate meeting links, offering a seamless transition between in‑person and online scheduling. A mobile application is also available to allow schedule management from any location.
