Overview
You can add people who are not members of the university to an MS Team.
A team owner needs to add the guest to the team.
NOTE: Non-UT guests added to Teams will not have the same access to files as members of the university. Guest access can be used with all Microsoft 365 Business Standard, Microsoft 365 Enterprise, and Microsoft 365 Education subscriptions. Guests may have a paid Microsoft License in order to see the Team. Licenses without cost will be able to chat and join meetings, but will not have access to the full Teams site.
