Student Login Instructions for Email, WebAdvisor, Canvas, and Wireless Network

Accessing Student Email, WebAdvisor, and Canvas through MyPortal 

The best way to access Student Email, WebAdvisor, and Canvas is through MyPortal.  MyPortal is linked on every one of our college campus website Home pages.  

  1. Begin on your college campus Home page (Note: it does not matter which campus you choose – each will allow all SCCCD students to log in.) 

  1. Click the MyPortal 

  • Desktop and laptop users: The MyPortal link is located at the top right corner of the page 

  • Mobile device users: Click on the 3 horizontal lines at the top right corner of your screen.  From the menu page that appears, look under the Search bar and click the MyPortal link on the right side, just above the APPLY NOW 

  1. When the MyPortal page displays, click on either the blue “Sign In” button in the middle of the screen, or on the “Sign In” link at the top right corner of the screen. 

  • NOTE:  If the link at the top right corner of the screen says your name, then you are already signed in. 

  1. A Microsoft Sign-in page should appear, prompting the user to enter an Email address, Phone number, or Skype handle.  Students should enter their 7-digit student ID number, followed by @my.scccd.edu (example: 0123456@my.scccd.edu).  Then click the blue “Next” button. 

  1. A State Center Community College District login page should appear. The login box should say, “State Center Community College District”.  It should also include Username and Password data entry fields. 

  1. The default login information for students accessing MyPortal is as follows: 

  • Username: The username for MyPortal is your 7-digit student ID number, followed by @my.scccd.edu (example: 0123456@my.scccd.edu). 

  • Password: The default password for MyPortal is the first letter of your first name (upper case), the first letter of your last name (lower case), and your 6-digit birthdate (MMDDYY) 

  • NOTE:  If the password has been changed or is otherwise rejected, the password may be reset by using the “Reset My Password” link on the WebAdvisor Main Menu page (webadvisor.scccd.edu) or by calling the Student Systems Support Call Center at (559) 499-6070 during normal business hours (8am to 5pm, Monday through Friday) 

  1. Once the username and password information has been entered, click the Login 

  1. The full MyPortal page should display.  The links for Canvas, Student Email, and WebAdvisor will be listed under the “My Favorite Apps” header. 

  • NOTE:  Mobile users may need to click the “My Favorite Apps” header to display the links. 

  • NOTE:  Alumni who have not attended our campuses for the last 5 years (or longer) may not have the full version of MyPortal displayed after logging in.  If that is the case, you will need to use the direct url for the desired site and log in directly from the site to gain access. 

  1. Each of the three links should take you to the desired site without prompting for additional login information. 

  • NOTE:  WebAdvisor does require that the user click the “LOG IN” link at the top right corner of the page, but it will not require any further login information.

Accessing the Wireless Network (on-campus Wi-Fi) 

To access the on-campus Wi-Fi network, open the Connections Settings on the device being used and select “Wi-Fi”.  A list of available Wi-Fi networks should appear.  There are 3 separate Wi-Fi networks offered on each campus for users to select from:  SCWIFI, SCWIFI-Staff, and SCWIFI-Guest.  Each network requires its own username and password: 

  • SCWIFI – This is our Wi-Fi network for students. 

  • Username: The username for SCWIFI is your 7-digit student ID number 

  • Password: The default password for SCWIFI is the first letter of your first name (upper case), the first letter of your last name (lower case), and your 6-digit birthdate (MMDDYY) 

  • SCWIFI-Staff – This is our Wi-Fi network for district employees. 

  • Username:  The username for SCWIFI-Staff is your standard district user ID (your first and last initials followed by a 3-digit number) 

  • Password:  The password for SCWIFI-Staff is the current personal password you are using for all of your district accounts.  If you do not know your password, you will need to contact the District Information Systems Help Desk at (559) 244-4357 between 8am and 5pm, Monday through Friday, for assistance. 

SCWIFI-Guest  – This is our Wi-Fi network for users who are neither students nor employees.  The username and password will vary depending on which campus you are currently on.  Please contact your campus Technical Support Services Help Desk to receive the login information unique to your location.
