For the Mac

In Outlook, click on New, then E-mail Message.

New > E-mail Message

In the menu at the top, click on Drafts, then Signatures, then Edit Signatures.

Draft > Signatures > Edit Signatures

You could make a new signature if you prefer, or edit your 'standard' signature. Here I've made one named "BU Study Abroad." Click on the + icon to make a new one.

Next, copy the signature block shown on this page:

And paste it into the signature box like I've done above.

Click on the red x to close the signature window.

Now, whenever you write a new message, you can insert the signature, here:

And it will put the signature in the message.

For the PC

For Outlook on a PC, go to File > Options > Mail > Signatures. Then you can copy and paste the signature in and edit it with your information. Just note that you have to be using HTML format as opposed to the plain text format.
