Tips for Activating your student profile:

3. Find the panel in the middle titled “WCC Account Activation” and click on the New Students
4. Enter your UserID. If you do not know it, contact MyWCCHelpdesk@sunywcc.edu or call 914-606-5600.
5. You will be prompted to select two security questions and provide an answer for each. These questions will be used in the event that you forget your password. It is important that you remember exactly the answers you provide!
6. Next you will be requested to create a password for your account, and to enter it twice. The second entry must match the first exactly to verify correctness. The password must be between 7 and 25 characters long, must contain at least one UPPER case character, at least one lower case character, at least one digit, and cannot be your first name, last name or be the same as your UserID. It should not contain spaces.
