MySeattleColleges Login Account

MySeattleColleges accounts are automatically created for incoming students and new employees. You'll use your MySeattleColleges credentials to log into most Seattle Colleges computing resources, from both on and off campus.

To begin using your MySeattleColleges Login Account

  1. Activate your ctcLink account. (See ctcLink information for activation steps.)
  2. Create your MySeattleColleges password. Video Instructions (1:28 mins)
  3. Note your MySeattleColleges username after successfully setting your password. Your username is usually composed of your first name and last name. 
    Example - Firstname.Lastname 
    (First and last name based on your official student/employee registration/HR record).

Note: MySeattleColleges Account is a separate account from your ctcLink account. Your ctcLink account should be activated before you initialize your MySeattleColleges Login Account. Your ctcLink credentials are needed to log into 'MySeattleColleges Login Tools' for the account initialization.

Students who want to match their username and email to their preferred/chosen name in ctcLink can make that request inside their MySeattleColleges account.
