What is My Password for MyGBC Self-Service Center?

You should have received your initial password for logging into MyGBC by email at the same time as you received your User ID -- that is, shortly after applying for admission.

You will not be able to change this temporary password and will only be used for initial enrollment into classes. Once you enroll into credit classes, you will receive an email with your GBC email (username) and instructions with your default password.

Password Security is very Important!

Passwords are used to protect your user accounts so it is important to create strong passwords and to keep those passwords secure. If you share your password, you’re sharing your identity. Here are some helpful tips on keeping your passwords secure:

  • Do not tell others your passwords – including co-workers or supervisors.
  • Protect any recorded passwords - do not leave them anywhere you would not leave the information they protect. Do not write it down at all, if possible.
  • Do not check “remember my password” on any website.
  • Never provide your password over e-mail or based on an e-mail request – the Help Desk will NEVER request your password via e-mail. Many of these requests can appear to come from a legitimate source but are fraudulent.
  • Change your password regularly – just like fall and spring cleaning, about every 6 months.
  • Change your password if you have reason to believe it has been compromised.
  • Do not type passwords on computers that you do not control – such as internet cafes, computer labs, airport lounges, or others that have open WiFi access.
  • Do not let others use your account – this includes you logging in for them.
  • Be sure no one is watching when you enter your ID and password.
  • Be sure to log out of all programs prior to closing the web browser and be sure to close the web browser before logging off the computer. Do not walk away from a computer until you are certain that you have logged off.
