Oakland Community College has partnered with Google to provide OCC students with
Google Apps. This includes access to Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, Google
Talk and much more.
If you have a MyOCC account and have logged in to MyOCC at least once, then your
Student Email is ready to be activated. To begin, enter your MyOCC
user name and password then click Sign In.
Important - If it’s your first time logging in to your student email, be sure to
completely log out of any Gmail accounts you are currently logged into on your device
(this step is only required the first time you login). Then, enter your MyOCC user name
and password on this page then click Sign In.

Why can't I set up my OCC Student Email account on my mobile phone?
Your OCC Student Email account is not a typical Gmail account. OCC offers a type
of Google email that can be used collaboratively within the student.oaklandcc.edu
domain but not outside of that. Student.oaklandcc.edu email accounts are created
and linked to the OCC student’s MyOCC user name and as such, the email account uses
the MyOCC password to gain access. Google has no record of this password; for this
reason, it may not be possible to set up student email on some mobile devices.

I already have a Gmail account, so why can’t I activate my OCC Student Email Account?
If you have any personal Gmail accounts, you must temporarily log out or use an incognito
browser window before attempting to activate your OCC Student Email Account. If you remain
logged in to your personal Gmail accounts, your student account may not be activated.
Once you log into your student account for the first time, you may log back into any personal
Gmail accounts.
