Email

Every GCC student has a Gmail email box accessed through Google Apps.  Student e-mail can be easily accessed either through http://My.maricopa.edu  (by clicking on GoogleApps@Maricopa) or at http://www.maricopa.edu/google/.

If you are an existing student - you will use your existing college identification number (MEID) and password. That means a student who has “XXXX” as a MEID, for example, would have an address of “XXXX@maricopa.edu.”
If you are a new student, a MEID and corresponding email address are generated upon your registration for classes. If needed, you can discover your MEID and set your password by accessing the Student Personal Administration Tool (SPAT).

Tips:

Messages up to 20 MB (including attachments) in size can be sent. Please note that you may not be able to send larger attachments to contacts who use other email services with smaller attachment limits.
Blocked file types:
Executable Files -- As a security measure to prevent potential viruses, Gmail doesn't allow you to send or receive executable files (such as files ending in .exe).
Files ending in .zip .tar, .tgz, .z, .gz.
Address books formatted as CSV can be imported. For more information please see: http://www.maricopa.edu/google/addressbook.html
We do not recommend using an email client to access your Gmail account such as Outlook, Outlook Express, or Thunderbird. These applications do not work effectively with MCCD's current login authentication process. This problem is currently under review by District IT services.

District/Google Help Resources are available on the Gmail (GoogleApps@Maricopa) login page -- http://www.maricopa.edu/google/.
