Official E-mail and Portal Policy
for Students
Suffolk County
Community College’s official web-based student portal (MySCCC) and student
email accounts are an official means of communication to all full- and
part-time students enrolled in credit bearing classes. All such students are
required to activate MySCCC portal and email accounts. Official College
communications may include, but are not limited to, registration information,
financial aid information and other financial statements, student health
compliance information and academic progress notifications.
The College expects
that students shall receive and read their electronic communications on a
frequent and timely basis. Failure to do so shall not absolve the student
from knowing of and complying with the contents of all electronic
communications, some of which will be time-critical.
The College does not recommend that students
redirect e-mail to another e-mail address. If they do so, it is at their own
risk. The College is not responsible for the handling of e-mail by outside
vendors, nor can it provide technical support for setting up mail-forwarding
configurations or use of external mail readers. If e-mail is lost as a result
of forwarding, students are not absolved from the responsibilities associated
with communications sent to their official College e-mail address.
