ChatGPT

On Friday, February 4, 2025, CSU Chancellor Mildred García announced a landmark initiative to bring OpenAI’s ChatGPT Edu to all CSU campuses, including SJSU. 

OpenAI's ChatGPT Edu agreement is tailored specifically for the California State University (CSU) system, providing advanced AI capabilities for eligible faculty, staff, and students. It offers the ability to build custom GPTs for sharing within campus workspaces, as well as the needed privacy and data protection, and other enterprise security such as single sign-on (SSO), and SCIM integration.

Currently, ChatGPT Edu is available for SJSU students, faculty, and staff. There is no additional cost to access ChatGPT Edu while using your SJSU account. 

How to Access ChatGPT Edu

There are two methods to access ChatGPT Edu. You can access ChatGPT by visiting one.sjsu.edu and searching for the tile titled "Chat GPT." Clicking on the tile will launch ChatGPT Edu.
