Receiving a Network Account

Students: After completing the registration process and paying the deposit, every new student will receive a Network Account. This network account is generated in approximately two weeks following payment of the deposit. Once the account is generated an account claim email is sent to each student via the email used for communication during the application process.

Employees: After completing all paperwork with Human Resources, your Network Account will generate. This network account information is held at the LTS Help Desk, unless otherwise directed.

We do not provide account information over email. If you do not receive your username and password following the two weeks from payment of the deposit, you must either call or stop by the LTS Help Desk.

Avoid Being Locked Out: Follow the instructions below after changing your password

Network accounts can be locked out after too many failed login attempts. This is typically caused by passwords being saved on devices or in browsers and then used after a password reset. If you get a lockout message then follow these steps below to make sure that your network account information is removed from all locations. The account will automatically unlock after 15 minutes but if you are still locked after that time contact the LTS Help Desk for assistance.

  • Eduroam: Eduroam connection settings on personal devices will retain your Username and Password information. Forgetting the Eduroam connection on all personal devices will remove this information and prevent your account from being locked. Once it is forgotten, reconnect with the new password.
  • Clear Browser Cache and Saved Passwords: Sign out of MyYCP in all browsers used (Chrome, Edge, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari). Clear Browser Cache and be sure to forget all passwords to prevent the old password from pulling into MyYCP.
  • If you use any 3rd Party Email Clients (Apple Mail, Outlook, etc.): Update the password in the client. Some are difficult to update the password so we suggest removing the account and adding it back to get the new password entered.
  • If you use a Password Manager (Ex. Last Pass): Update your password in that system.
  • If you use Apple and iCloud KeyChain: Clear or update your myYCP password in this system. It can be either on your MacBook locally, in your iOS passwords, or used through your iCloud account. You can reference this Apple Support article: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201609
