The Center utilizes Windows Terminal Servers to allow access to applications which would normally be accessible only on campus. All you need is an active Internet connection and a small free utility.
A username and password should have been created for you after you started your first class. For students, usernames are typically your last name followed by the last 4 digits of your social security number. For example, if your name is Steven Jones and your SSN is 123-45-6789 your username will be jones6789. Your initial password will be the last 4 digits of your SSN. The system will require you to create a new, more secure password when you first login.
To access the remote servers you will need to run a small application called Remote Desktop Connection. If you are using a Windows machine this app will already be installed on your computer. From the Start Menu, select Programs or All Programs. Select Accessories, and then Remote Desktop Connection.
If you are using a Mac, you will need to download and install the free application from Microsoft. Remote Desktop Connection for Mac
When you run the application you should see the following logon screen:
