CES ChatGPT Edu at BYU

Brigham Young University, in coordination with the Church Educational System (CES), is expanding access to CES ChatGPT Edu, the university's enterprise ChatGPT environment. CES has an enterprise agreement with OpenAI that provides CES institutions with a secure, institutionally managed AI environment. At BYU, CES ChatGPT Edu is intended to support teaching, learning, research, and university work while providing appropriate privacy, security, access, and governance practices. Rolling out CES ChatGPT Edu has been gradual so BYU can expand access while still developing training, support, communications, and governance needed for responsible AI use across campus. CES ChatGPT Edu Terms of Service

Rollout and Eligibility

On September 22, CES and OpenAI began sending invitations to BYU faculty, staff, and student employees.
This first phase allowed BYU to expand access while continuing to strengthen resources and processes before the service was extended to the broader student population.

BYU will begin its gradual CES ChatGPT Edu rollout to students on November 9. Eligible students will receive BYU-provided base access to CES ChatGPT Edu, which does not use credits and does not bring any additional costs upon students, including access to Codex. We are finalizing eligibility and additional authorization requirements for specific student groups, including students under the age of 18.
