We're excited that you will be joining the Law School Community soon and congratulate you on being accepted to Santa Clara University School of Law. 



If you did not receive a notification email from Santa Clara University by mid July, then please contact SCU Onestop at 408-551-1000. If your MySCU password is not working or needs to be reset, then contact the main University IT Services at 408-554-5700.


For first year and transfer students, it is important to note that you must be in good standing with the University before your academic accounts can be created. Make sure to follow up with the Office of Registrar and/or seek the help of SCU Law School Student services. 



Before you even set foot on campus, you can get most of your online tools configured and ready....






So, if you didn't receive an email notification in your personal email address detailing how to claim your new SCU Account, then immediately contact SCU OneStop 408-554-1000 or visit their SCU OneStop site.
Once you get the notification email from Santa Clara University, you must follow those directions to claim your account. They are also included below.


Complete Step 1 of the Account Claim Process by entering your SCU ID, Last Name, and Claim Code from the email.


Read SCU’s Acceptable Use Policy by clicking on the link. If you agree to the terms, check the box next to "You must agree to the terms to claim your account." When you are ready, click Next.


Complete Step 2 of the Account Claim Process by updating your password to a password that meets the requirements listed. You will be asked to enter a new password and then verify it by entering it again. When you are ready click Next.


A message appears that indicates you have successfully completed the Account Claim Process. Your SCU Username appears in the message. This is your MySCU Portal username.
