For MOST usernames use the username that was emailed to you. In most cases this is Lastname.Firstname, though some may contain numbers. PLEASE NOTE THE DOT (PERIOD) BETWEEN YOUR LAST NAME AND FIRST NAME.

1. For your FIRST password, use birthdate in the format yyyymmdd. DO NOT SKIP ANY NUMBERS. Example: November 6, 1980 would be entered as 19801106
2. You will then be prompted to change your password. PLEASE RECORD THIS IN A SAFE PLACE.
   
3. You will then see links to the courses you are enrolled in.
4. If your name is identical to that of another student, your username may be different. Check your student email address to confirm your correct login name.

If you forget your password, you can recover it by using the "I Forgot My Password" button located beneath the login area. For security purposes, you will need to provide your @my.gulfcoast.edu student email address. Only your my.gulfcoast.edu student email address will work.

PLEASE NOTE: May 7th is the official start date for courses. Your instructors may choose to not open their courses until after this date, or until orientation. Please contact your instructor for further information if you do not see your courses after the beginning of the semester.
