Your login id is your student identification number (begins with 88). Your password is originally set to the four digits that represent MMDD of your birth month and day. You can change it once you log in.

Read the current Online Student Guide for your class. This is available on the Moodle home page.

Your classroom might not open until the first day of the term. The accounts take three business days to appear in the Moodle server after you register for the class.

If you do not know your student identification number, you can log into the Student Information System using your social security number, but that only works if you gave the college your social security number.

Your new campus email will be uploaded to Moodle as the address where instructor correspondence will be sent. Be sure to log in and check it the first day of class. You can edit your profile after you log in and change the email address.
