Welcome

Your college account is essential for accessing a number of college systems. Soon after enrollment, you will receive your Student ID and information on how to set your password for your new Loughborough College account.

Account Details

Your Student ID number found on your student card is what will be used as your username. You need it to log on to computers at college and into some systems along with the password you created when you first enrolled on a course.

For some systems, you will log on with your Student ID; for others, you will use your college email address, which is your Student ID plus @student.loucoll.ac.uk (e.g. 123456@student.loucoll.ac.uk). As a general rule anything that is connected to Microsoft 365 will require your email address, otherwise it will likely be just your Student ID.

Software & Systems

You will have access to a wide range of software and systems once you enroll in a course at Loughborough College.

These use your college email address as a username (e.g. 123456@student.loucoll.ac.uk)

These use your Student ID as a username. (e.g. 123456)

What is Single Sign On (SSO)?

The Single Sign On means that you should only need to login to many systems once and your browser will automatically log you into other systems connected to the college.  For example, if you first sign into the Student Dashboard (www.lcstudent.com) it should then sign you into LearnZone or Microsoft 365 automatically if you click on the links on the Student Dashboard page.
