How to Log into Canvas the First Time
  • Use your GCC Student ID number as username.
  • Use your first name first initial and last name first initial in CAPITAL LETTERS followed by an @" sign and by your six-digit date of birth (mmddyy) as the password.

    For example, password for John Smith born January 23, 1990 would be JS@012390
  • You will be asked to change your password the first time you login. If you can’t log in a second time, you will have to reset your password. Remember to check your student.glendale.edu email to get the password reset code numbers.

Your Canvas log in is the same as what you use for your GCC email. If you are having trouble logging in you may need to reset your password. Please check out these password reset instructions for help.
