eGCC USERNAME and PASSWORD

eGCC ID's and passwords are used ONLY to login to GCC's campus computers. Every GCC student has access on campus to an eGCC computing account.

If Working On Campus...

To get started and login to your eGCC Account, you will need your eGCC Username and Password.

To obtain your eGCC Username, scan your GCC College ID at one of the eGCC Account Look-Up Stations in the High Tech Centers, the Library Media Center, or at GCC North in the Student Cluster Area. Scanning your GCC ID will give you your eGCC Username that is required to log into your Account. Printouts are available at each of these Account Look-Up Stations. 

What is my default password?

Your default eGCC Password will be the month and day of your birth and the first three letters of your first name, entered in the format MMDDaaa.

Examples:
John Doe born January 12th -- 0112joh
My Student born March 14th -- 0314my

You will be asked to change your password upon logging into a campus computer the first time.  Or, you may change your password at http://genesis.gc.maricopa.edu/password. Changing your password will safeguard your personal information and provide access to important eGCC resources. Your new password should be at least six characters long with no spaces. Tip: You can now use a combination of upper and lower case letters and numbers to create your password.

If Working Off Campus...

Please follow the 3-Step procedure below to activate your eGCC Account.

  1. Please contact the Helpdesk by telephone at 623.845.3555 ext 2 to get your eGCC Username. Once you have your username, please continue to Step 2.
  2. Your default eGCC Password will be your month and day of birth and the first three letters of your first name, entered in the format MMDDaaa.
  3. Once you have your eGCC Username and Password, open up your Internet Browser and type in the following web address: https://genesis.gc.maricopa.edu/password/ .
  4. Enter in your Username and your default Password. Then choose a new Password that is 6-8 character long. The most secure passwords use nonsensical combinations of numbers and letters (capital and lower-case). Please see Frequently Asked Questions for additional suggestions.
  5. After entering your new password into the next two boxes, click once on the "Change Password" button, and wait to see that it has been successfully changed.

    Please do NOT share your Password with anyone!
