Utilizing Okta for user authentication provides new and returning students with a secure login experience. This ensures the protection of their credentials and reduces the risk of unauthorized access to the OAAP.

  • If you are a returning student logging in with your ctcLink EMPLID and need to update your address, email, or phone number,  you must do this in ctcLink before applying for admissions.
