Congratulations! Your student has been accepted to Suffolk. Here's how to help them get set up, registered and ready for the first day of class.

Getting Started with Technology

Before classes begin, your student should create their Suffolk username and password, set up multi-factor authentication, and activate their Suffolk email, the college's official way to communicate. From the login portal, they'll reach Brightspace for coursework, MySCCC, and free Microsoft 365 apps. Need help? Call 631-451-HELP (4357) or visit sunysuffolk.edu/studenttech.
