Most Commonly Asked Tech Questions
Please note that you must either show a photo ID or share your GTCC ID number for your account to be found. If you do not have your ID number, you may search for it here: https://applicationstatus.gtcc.edu. Your ID number is a 7-digit number that begins with either 0 or 1. It is not your social security number.
Your username is the first part of your email address, so if you use jssmith@gtcc.edu, your username will be jssmith.
Your username is case sensitive and is unusual because usernames shorter than four characters will have capital Xs as placeholders in the system until they are at least six (6) characters long.
Moodle & WebAdvisor use the same username and password.
- Passwords must have:
- at least eight characters, but no more than 16.

- Then, take it to the GTCC Registrar’s Office with two forms of identification (one of which has to be a state or federally issued picture ID) to start the process. They are located in Room 140, Sears Applied Technologies Building, Jamestown Campus and are open from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm, Monday through Thursday and 8:00 am-5:00 pm Friday. After they guide you, the last steps will be to get your name changed in WebAdvisor by the MIS Department and in Moodle by the eLearning Department.
- Note: Please continue to use WebAdvisor and Moodle as normal, until the change has been made. Be sure to inform your instructors that your name will be changing. Please note that your username will not change, even if the name associated with it does.

There are two networks for students to choose from:
eduroam (education roaming) is a secure worldwide federated network access service developed for the international research and education community. It allows GTCC faculty, staff, and students to use their GTCC user name and password to access wireless network services when visiting participating institutions. In addition, it enables GTCC to serve as a hotspot for eduroam members visiting our campus.

TitanNet is the GTCC student/public wireless network. Previously, a login was not required. For better security, Faculty, Staff and Students will now log on using their GTCC username/password. Non-GTCC guests will sign on with their private email address or SMS message. This login is similar to what you see when using wireless at the hospital, hotel or some restaurants.

If you have never reset your GTCC password before, it is your 6-digit birthdate. This is the 2-digit month, followed by the 2-digit day, and ending with the last two digits of the year, not the full year. For example, if your birthdate was January, 1, 1973, your default password would be 010173.
- If you are a student, you can go to https://applicationstatus.gtcc.edu and provide your last name and social security number there to find out what your student ID number is.
- Some websites, tools and/or plugins require Java (and its plugins) to work.
- To check your version or download updated version of Java, visit: https://www.java.com/en/download/

To ensure the security of users’ accounts, we must speak with the owner of the account and verify their identity with their college ID number.
Another person’s account information is not something that can be delegated as we have no way of verifying who the caller is if it is not the owner of the account.
