MySeattleColleges Login Account

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

To begin using your MySeattleColleges Login Account

(Your ctcLink account needs to be activated first. See ctcLink information for activation steps.)

Initialize your MySeattleColleges Account and set your password before your first use. You will receive your specific login username during the initialization. Your login username is usually composed of your first name and last name followed by @seattlecolleges.edu.
Example - Firstname.Lastname@seattlecolleges.edu.
(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.

Quick Steps for Account Set-up

  1. Go to MySeattleColleges Login Tools (http://tools.seattlecolleges.edu/) page.
  2. Choose “Reset My Password” tab and enter your ctcLink ID (EMPLID) and ctcLink Password. 
  3. Set your MySeattleColleges password to one only you know and save.
    NOTE - Password requirement increases to 15 character minimum as of 3/4/24 for staff. You can set or change your password to meet this requirement ahead of time, or will be required to do so on or after 3/4/24 to access your account. Students are not yet required, but are strongly encouraged to utilize this longer password for best account security.
    1. Make note of your Login information displayed in the Success window. You can now begin using your specific MySeattleColleges Login: username and password to access campus services and resources. (See Login Access Services menu item on the left side bar of this window.)
