Access Student Email
Overview
MCC student email accounts are intended for school-related communication while you are an active student. Your account will be created for you, and you do not need to create a student email account.
Getting Started
Access to Email
Your student email account will be created within two (2) hours of receiving your Acceptance Letter from McLennan Community College (MCC).
- Although your account will be created within 2 hours, trying to access within this 2 hour window may result in an error stating: your account does not exist. If you receive this error, please wait 2 hours before retrying.
- If you set your MCC password before your student email account was created, you may need to reset your password if you are unable to log in after the 2 hour window has passed. The reset ensures your password is properly synced to your new email account.
Logging into your Student Email
- Go to Student Email or to www.mclennan.edu > I am a > Current Student. Click on Student Email. You can also log into gmail.com with your student email address.
- If you are redirected to a personal Gmail account, please click the button to switch or add account before going to the next step.
- Your login username will be your email address: the first initials of your first name and last name, your 7-digit MCC ID number followed by @students.mclennan.edu.
- You will use the password you created for MyMCC or Brightspace.
- Need to reset your password? Visit Forgot Password for instructions on how to reset your MCC password.

- Upon leaving MCC, be sure to update any accounts, associated with or linked to your student email, with your personal email address.
After a 12-month period without any active courses, your student email account and all associated data, including Google Drive, will be deleted.
