Admissions
Looking for a small, close-knit campus filled with incredible, hands-on learning opportunities? Our Admissions Office can help make Elmira College YOUR place.
Elmira College's Information Technology Department is able to connect you with a variety of resource to help you connect with faculty, excel at your classes, and save on technology purchases.
As an EC student, you will receive a Google Apps at Elmira College (GAEC) account that includes Gmail, Calendar, Drive (storage), Docs (web-based word processing, spreadsheet, and presentation programs), and Sites. Just log in using your @ozone-1.com email address to access your Google apps. Your GAEC email address will still belong to you after graduation.
Set up two-factor authentication for your Gmail account
Keep an eye out for tutorials, workshops, and training sessions offered by our IT department that can help you maximize your use of Google apps.
Canvas, our online learning platform, is where your professors will post the syllabus, assignments, and submission drop boxes for both online and in-person classes. You are able to log into Canvas using your Elmira College credentials only after you have registered for classes. Need some tips for using Canvas? Check out the Canvas training guides.
Current students at Elmira College can sign up for Office 365 Education for free, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, and Microsoft Teams, plus additional classroom tools. All you need is to log in with your valid @ozone-1.com email address to get started.
You are able to download the apps on up to five devices and will have access until you graduate!

Note: During the beta, this extension will only work with quizzes an instructor has enabled for use with LockDown Browser for Chromebook. It is your responsibility to let your instructors know if you are using a Chromebook.

In order to connect to EC_Wifi, your device must be registered. Laptops and phones should automatically prompt you to sign in using your Elmira College credentials once you try to connect to the EC_Wifi network. All other devices (smart TVs, Roku, gaming systems, Amazon Echos, etc.) must be registered manually.
If you continue to experience issues, please email your device's Mac address to helpdesk@ozone-1.com for assistance. The Mac address for most devices can be found under network settings. For more specific instructions, Google has directions for every type of device.
Please note that wireless printers are not compatible with our network and wireless routers are prohibited.
Elmira College students should always be connecting to the EC_Wifi network, not our Guest network.
