WebLabs and WebFiles are related services that give you access to a number of applications licensed by Penn State. All you need is a modern browser. These services can be accessed from both desktop and mobile browser versions. Now, you can do desktop-level computing from your iPad or other tablet device!
Note: Global Protect VPN is required for off-campus connections.
See more from Penn State IT about the recent transition from WebApps to WebLabs.
WebLabs allows you to use your Penn State Access ID to access dozens of applications without installing any software on your local or mobile computer. These are fully-featured applications that will allow you to do things as you would in a standard installation environment.
