Logging in to BCIT Tools and Systems (Students)

You need your BCIT login credentials to log in to all BCIT systems.

Note: This article is for BCIT students. If you are a BCIT employee, please see the faculty and staff login article.

Note re: first login

If you have never logged in before, your BCIT password will be the default:

  • Default BCIT password is your date of birth – year, month and day (YYMMDD)
  • Alternate default BCIT password is the last 6 digits of your BCIT ID

For best security, change your password. Don’t keep using the default.
