Will you be a Snead student in the Fall 2012?

Then this information applies to you!

Snead State Community College is in the process of changing to new software that will be used campus wide by staff and students. What students now know as SSCC Online will have a new look and a new name when it comes time to register for the Fall 2012 semester.

SSCC Online will become mySnead!

What do you need to know now?

The implementation of the new software is in the early stages, so all you need to know is the following:

1.      Expect to learn a new system for registering for your classes. There will be time designated for current students to receive their new login/password and to learn the functions of the new system. Snead State will keep students informed as the process moves forward.

2.      Faculty and staff will be available to help students learn the new process, but remember – we’re all learning the new system. Your patience will be appreciated as we work out the kinks that seem to always come when you’re trying something new.

Why change?

There are many reasons behind the change to a new system, but the reason that impacts students the most is this: Students will be able to sign-on once and access mySnead for registration, transcripts, financial aid information and grades; Blackboard for online content; and Gmail for College communications!  Though you have to get used to having a new login/password and a new system, the end result should be a more user-friendly, effective system for students! Because the system is similar to that used by many Alabama universities, students will have an opportunity to become familiar with it before they transfer from Snead.

How will I be notified of information as the process moves forward?

1.      If you’re enrolled for the summer semester and plan to return in the fall, you’ll receive information through your student webmail account.

2.      Information will be posted on the school website, www.snead.edu.

3.      Information will be posted on the college’s social media websites: www.facebook.com/sneadstatecc, www.twitter.com/sneadstatecc, www.sneadstateexperience.blogspot.com. 

4.      Information of any registration sessions to train students on the new system will be distributed through the methods listed above as well as through local media.
