If you’re a new student and have not activated your account yet, please do so at Creating a GTCC Account.
GTCC accounts lock out for various reasons, but the most common one is too many failed login attempts.
GTCC Faculty and Staff get three attempts to log in before the account is locked, and Students get 10 attempts.
The Creating a GTCC Account page provides you the ability to unlock your account yourself if you have set up your security questions. If this does not resolve your issue, you can call the Service Desk at (336) 334-4822, ext. 52909 or 866-826-3748.
Note: The account that gets locked out is the one associated with the username entered during login. If someone else mistakenly enters your username and tries to log in too many times, your account gets locked out in order to protect your information. This usually happens when someone forgets to type in the number at the end of their username or types in the wrong number.
- 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://java.com/download
Note: Java doesn’t work on Google Chrome and doesn’t work on some mobile devices. If you need to access something that uses Java, please access from a desktop or laptop computer using Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer or Edge, or Apple Safari.
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.

Titan Live Email FAQ
Every student, faculty member, and staff member at GTCC is assigned a Titan Live ID that is used for multiple services such as email and Moodle. The same credentials are used to access multiple resources at the college.
However, before you can start using your Titan Live ID you must register and activate your account. Registering your account not only activates it but allows you to enroll in the self-service password reset system so that you may reset your own password if forgotten. Activation is done through the password management portal at Creating a GTCC Account. This page allows you to activate your Titan Live ID as well as change your password if forgotten.
Click below for instruction on how to set up Titan Live on:
- If you’re a new student, make sure that you have gone through the activation process at Creating a GTCC Account first or you will not be able to access your TitanLive email, Canvas or Self-Service.
- Once your account is activated, login in at Titan Email with your entire email address (jssmith@gtcc.edu for example) for your username. It will not work if you leave off the “@gtcc.edu” part.
- You can call the 24/7 Help Line at 1-866-826-3748. Make sure that you have your name, student ID # and date of birth.
- You can reset it yourself (you must have already activated your account and set up your security questions). Go to Creating a GTCC Account.
- Or your can stop in to Tutoring Center.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a multi-step account login process that requires users to enter more information than just a password. For example, along with the password, users might be asked to enter a code sent to their email or phone, or answer a secret question. A second form of authentication can help prevent unauthorized account access if a system password has been compromised.
GTCC requires MFA for email accounts. If you have set your MFA for your phone and have forgotten how to change it, please use the document below as a reminder.
Do not open or click on any link in any email that looks suspicious and/or was sent by someone that you do not know.
Please click on "Junk" in the toolbar of your email window and select whether it’s "Junk" (not wanted, but not harmful) or "Phishing" (suspicious and potentially harmful).
You also can forward any suspicious emails to spam@gtcc.edu to notify the ITS department of possible phishing and spam emails.
