Your username, email address, and temporary password will be provided as generated by the Information Technology department. Typically, usernames consist of the first initial of the first name followed by the full last name. Some exceptions apply, and a number may be added to the end of the username if it is common. For example, the username for a student, staff, or faculty member named Jane Doe will be jdoe. If another user named John Doe enters the system, his username will be jdoe1.
Email addresses are simply the username followed by @gordonconwell.edu. You also have an email alias ([email protected]) which redirects email to your actual address ([email protected]).
Username: Your username is provided in your welcome email. (Example: jdoe)
You will need this username to log into the CAMS Student or Faculty Portal and the password website.
Email Address: [email protected] (Example: [email protected])
You will need to enter the full email address, not just the username, to log into webmail and Canvas.
Password: Your password is the initial password provided in your welcome email.
To change your password, please see the instructions below.
New users need to register for the Self-Service Password System after receiving their initial password. The initial password will only work at the password site, and you will not be able to access the other portals until you have logged into the password site and changed the password.
Go to password.gordonconwell.edu and log in with your username and expired password. If your password has expired, the website will recognize it and immediately prompt you to create a new password.
Go to password.gordonconwell.edu and click the Forgotten Password button. Enter your username and choose either the text message or email verification option to reset your password.
Now you should be able to log into all the other GCTS portals with your new password. If none of these methods work, please contact [email protected] for a password reset.
Everyone at GCTS receives an email in this format: [email protected] GCTS email is the primary way in which the school will communicate with students, staff, and faculty. It is important to check regularly; otherwise, you will miss critical announcements from the school. CAMS and Canvas are both linked to your GCTS email, and personal email accounts will not be used as a primary email account for students, staff, or faculty.
Our email runs on the Microsoft platform. As a perk of our Microsoft partnership, your student, staff, or faculty email account includes a free Microsoft Office subscription. Visit our FAQ page for instructions to download the Microsoft Office suite for free with your email account!
Username: Your username is your entire email address (Example: [email protected])
Password: Your password
CAMS is the primary student/faculty portal that allows students and professors to access class and account information. Students can register for classes, make credit card payments to their tuition account, complete course evaluations, and access final grades on CAMS. There are separate portals for students and faculty, but they work together.

Canvas is our new learning management system that serves as an interactive platform for professors to set up and administer their courses; for students to access class resources (files, grades, and course announcements), submit assignments, and collaborate with faculty and other students; and for staff to collaborate with co-workers. Beginning in Spring 2019, all courses will be in Canvas but will only be visible to students if/when the professors publish them. Staff can also request to create Canvas sites for various purposes. Canvas is a multipurpose platform!
Canvas has replaced Sakai as of Spring 2019. Your access to Canvas is granted automatically only after you are registered for a course that uses the Canvas platform.
