Campus Communication
FRC Email and Network Account
Email is the primary source of communication between faculty, staff, and you, the
student. FRC requires that you sign up for an FRC Email and Network Account.
Information distributed via email includes such things as deadlines, general
announcements, and college updates and events. You are responsible for all
information sent via FRC email. This account allows you to log on to any student
computer system in the computer labs, the Library, and the Learning Center.
Printing is available at these locations.
How to Sign Up:
The account is provided free of charge and includes an email account and
access to networked computing systems and software on campus.
You can apply for an account in person at the Library or online at
www.frc.edu (click on the “Current Students” tab, and then “Request
Network Account”).
How to Access your Network Account:
You can access your account from any student computer system in the
computer labs, the Library, and the Learning Center.
