- Students- New Students

• The most important thing to remember is that you will almost always be using your USCA username. Most students only use their USC network usernames to log on to Blackboard and nothing else!

• Your USCA professors and administrative offices communicate with you via your USCA email address, so you must check this account! If your email address doesn’t end in @usca.edu then you are not using the correct address. Visit the Help Desk if you have questions about this!
