Gulf Coast Community College Student Email System

All currently enrolled students at Gulf Coast Community College have a student email account through the college's email system, which is provided by GCCC in association with Microsoft.  New students will be provided an email account the day after their admissions application is processed.  This is the official form of communication at GCCC.  Please remember to check your email periodically to receive important information. If you need assistance activating your email account, please watch these two brief videos:
>> Step-by-Step Training for Student E-mail (Part I)
>> Step-by-Step Training for Student E-mail (Part II)

There are two ways to find out your email address. One way is to log in to the OASIS Student Registration system.

Option 1: OASIS
To log in to OASIS, you will need your social security number or student identification number and student pin number. For new students or students who do not have an established pin number, you will use your default pin number of month/year of birth (MMYY, where YY is the last two digits of your birth year).  The system will prompt you to change your default pin number to your own selected 4-digit pin number. Within OASIS, you will find your student email account name. 

Option 2: ANGEL
New Angel accounts have your student email address already entered into it. To see your email address in Angel, first, visit the Angel web page. Click the "Preferences" icon on the left side of the screen (a wrench icon), and click "Personal Information". Your student email account will be listed on that page.

Your student email account name is automatically created by the college using your initials and a computer generated account number to guarantee uniqueness. 

Example: JJS1002@my.gulfcoast.edu.  If you do not have (or did not register at GCCC with) a middle initial, it will be replaced with an _ (underscore) character.

Logging in to student email

To access your student email account, browse to: http://mail.live.com/.  Enter your student email account name in the field labeled Windows Live ID. Your default password is your date of birth in the form of (YYYYMMDD).

Example: If your birth date is November 5, 1980, your password would be 19801105.

Your new email account comes with: 2 GB storage in your mailbox, a 10 MB attachment limit, Spam filtering, virus protection features, and attachment scanning. 

To begin your student email account set up, go to: http://mail.live.com/ and log in. See the training instructions to the right side of this page for further information on how to set up and use your account.

It is the responsibility of the student to continuously monitor your email account.  It will be used by your instructor as well as the administration offices of the college to deliver important information. You must log into your account at least once per year in order to keep it active.
