Course Login Get Started

Step 1:  Identify your UTTC username and password.

• If you have registered through the campus at which you are pursuing a degree (your home campus) for a course offered via the UT TeleCampus, your UTTC username and password have already been configured. Follow Option 1 instructions below.
• If you have registered through your campus for a course offered via the UT TeleCampus and your home campus is UT Austin or UTHSCSA, your UTTC username and password have already been configured. Follow Option 2 instructions below.

Option 1: (see qualifier above)

If you registered for a UTTC course through your home campus, your home campus will create a UTTC account for you just prior to the start of the semester. When your account was created, two emails were sent to the email address on your student account for your home campus. One email includes your UTTC username and the other has your UTTC password. If you no longer have the emails that included your username and password, follow the format below to login at the TIS (TeleCampus Information System), if your home campus is other than UT Austin or UT Health Science Center San Antonio.

• UTTC username = the first letter of your first name + the first 4 characters of your last name + the two digit month and two digit date of your birthdate (mmdd)
• UTTC password = your home campus student ID.

Please note that, for an account created by a campus, UTTC usernames and passwords are made up of all lower case letters and have no spaces. Also, please be sure to use the same name you gave your home campus. For example, Bill Smith would have a different username (bsmitxxxx) than would William Smith (wsmitxxxx). For additional information, enter the search terms, "Course Login" in the Knowledge Center.

Option 2: (see qualifier above)

If you are a UT Austin or a UTHSCSA home campus student, your UTTC username and password do not follow the format above. If you no longer have the emails that were sent to you containing your UTTC username and password, call the UTTC staff Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Central time, at 1-888-TEXAS-16. UTTC staff will be able to assist you in identifying your login credentials.

Step 2:  Go to the TeleCampus Information System (TIS), enter your username and password and click "Login." If this does not work, enter the search terms, "Course Login" in the Knowledge Center, and review the results.

1. Update your Username, Password and Profile Information in the TIS, as prompted. Fields that you are required to change or complete will be marked with a red asterick.
   
   When you change your username or password in the TIS, it can take up to four hours for the change to be updated for your course or the library. In the interim, use your previous UT TeleCampus username and password to login. Keeping your Profile Information current is crucial, especially your email address!
   
2. Once you have logged into the TIS, click on "UTTC Enrollment" on the left to verify your enrollment status. Your status must be "Enrolled" for you to access your course. You may now "Logout" of the TIS.
   
3. Go to Blackboard and bookmark the page for future convenience. You can also access Blackboard using the "Course Login" link at the top of any page of the UTTC website. Then, click on "Returning to the UT TeleCampus."
   
4. Use your UTTC username and password to login to Blackboard. This is where you will find your course in the "My Courses" box beginning on the first day of class. Remember that the changes you made to your username or password in the TIS (Step # 1, above) can take up to four hours to be updated for your course or the library. In the interim, use your previous UT TeleCampus username and password to login.
   
5. Please remember to return to the TIS any time you have a change in your personal information, especially if you have a change in your email address.
