When you register for one or more classes at either Columbia College or Modesto Junior College, your email account will be established. This email account will be used by faculty to contact students enrolled in their classes and for college staff to inform students of important announcements.

Email will be sent ONLY to your PiratesLink MJC Student Email; it is no longer being sent to your personal email account!

Once issued, e-mail accounts must be activated by the student. YCCD will not have access to your password; therefore, during activation you must provide an alternate e-mail address and set up a secret question/answer in case you need to reset your password.

Benefits of your YCCD/Windows Live Student Email account:

• Free 5 GB mailbox
• Up to 10 MB attachment size
• Manage calendars and track contacts
• Contact faculty and staff
• Receive important campus announcements
• Login from any computer with an Internet connection

Be sure to check out our other students' frequently asked questions.  View our terms of service, too.

If you have any questions about student email, please phone the Student HelpDesk at (209) 575-7900.
