Connect From Off-Campus


We realize that CC’s network resources are valuable to off-campus staff and students. However, with the increasing threat of viruses, worms, and hackers, it is also vital that we protect the CC network as much as possible. If you need:

Basic Email Only (no other network resources) You do NOT need to use the following instructions — you can connect to the Internet from any ISP (Internet Service Provider, such as Adelphia, Earthlink, AOL, etc.) and use our Outlook Web Access client to check your e-mail. Click Here for instructions.

Email Access for the Full Outlook Program (using Outlook instead of Outlook Express or Outlook Web Access) You will need to use Outlook over HTTP.

Access to Tutt Library’s Databases: Click Here for information on this from the Library.

For access to Network Resources (H: drive, I: drive, SCT Banner, etc.) you will need to use SSL Web VPN.

For access to GoWest Employee Self Service you will need to use SSL Web VPN.

To use Remote Desktop and connect to your work computer from home you will need to use SSL Web VPN.


SSL Web VPN

& Colorado College also provides a Web-based Virtual Private Networking service. This service creates a secure “tunnel” to the Colorado College network. You can use both SSL Web VPN to access Colorado College and internet resources at the same time. SSL Web VPN has another advantage in that it requires no set-up (you just need your CC username and password). For full instructions, please Click Here.

For Mac OSX users that wish to use Entourage or other users that have other specific needs that are not currently covered by SSL Web VPN, Click Here.
