What’s Changing in ctcLink?

Hi student,

We are less than one month away from the launch of ctcLink! This new single sign-on offers a centralized hub for you to manage and track your college education.

Here’s what’s changing:

  • Your BC Student ID (SID) will be replaced with a ctclink ID
  • How you review and update your personal and contact preferences
  • How to search and register for classes
  • How to add and drop classes
  • How to pay for tuition
  • How to view your academic progress (degree audit)
  • How to apply for graduation

And here’s what’s new:

  • Tasks
  • What-if scenarios
  • Mobile app
  • 24/7 access to your student journey
  • Connected experience across all of Washington state’s 34 community and technical colleges

Important Note: Financial aid offers will be reviewed in ctcLink starting late-summer 2022. Until then, please continue to review financial aid offers and information through the current BC Financial Aid Portal.
