    Email

    All students are issued a Penn College email account. Faculty and administrative departments use this as a primary means of communicating important information to students. The student email system is Web-based, allowing access from virtually any Internet-connected computer or mobile device. Access your email through the myPCT Portal home page.

    Network File Storage

    Students are provided 1TB of storage space through OneDrive and 200 MB on a private network storage area (or home drive) that can be accessed from on and off campus. The space can be used to store files related to academic course work. Other network drives (R: and S: drives) are provided specifically for downloading and submitting course assignments. Information on how to access and use these network storage areas is provided on the ITS site on the myPCT Portal.
