If you do not know your student ID number, please reach out to our Admissions department for assistance. It is recommended that your change your password as soon as you can to ensure your account remains safe. Make sure you can log in to email, BrightSpace and the MyYCCC portal BEFORE changing your password.
Your YCCC issued login information should be as follows

Password: Yc#ID_NUMBER (replace ID_NUMBER with your student ID number) Note: The password includes the Yc# then the number.
Email, BrightSpace and MyYCCC use the full email address. The password is the same for all three.
When making a new password, you will need to follow the below guidelines:
-
Minimum of 8 characters
-
Contains both numeric and alphabetic characters*

-
English uppercase characters (A through Z)
-
English lowercase characters (a through z)
-
Base 10 digits (0 through 9)

Your password cannot contain words or patterns from your username (three consecutive characters).
