You need to access a variety of resources just to navigate the administrative aspects of going to school. Here are the links and processes for getting into Canvas, RC Email, and Campus Connect as well as other facilities and tools.
This is the most commonly used tool on campus. Access the internet from your device with the password Ranger1926
Campus Connect is the administrative component of your internet resources. This is where you will register for classes, view official grades, view your transcript and billing, as well as holds, balances, and financial aid information. It is the fifth item in the Academics tab of the home page.
Students log in with their RC student ID number or Social Security number with no dots or dashes.
The password is your 8 character birthday (MMDDYYYY). Example: 04011997
Go to the Gmail homepaqe: mail.google.com
Select the Use Another Account option from the list that opens.

Your username is your Ranger College email and your password is your email password. Just like logging in to email.
Text Books are accessed through Canvas. Follow the professor’s instructions. You must use your Ranger College email address.
Free Application for Federal Student Aid: www.fafsa.ed.gov
Use their website to apply for financial aid. Must be completed for every semester.
The Library
Checking out books, calculators, and Chromebooks from the library is easy! An account was created for you as part of registration. You will need to provide a photo ID such as your student ID or driver’s license each time you check out materials. After all, you don’t want someone using your name to check stuff out, making you liable when they don’t return it.
Most materials, including books, computers, Chromebooks, and graphing or scientific calculators, are checked out for the entire semester.
A few items, such as headphones, dry erase markers, and phone chargers, are available for in-library use only.
Remember rented textbooks are returned to the bookstore, not the library. If you drop them off here, we have no idea who to credit.
