Requesting access to the SC Student Cluster

The SC (student cluster) is designated for classwork-related use only.

• Requests for access to the SC Student Cluster are made directly from faculty/instructors conducting the class.
  • Faculty/Instructors: To request access to the SC student cluster, please email rc-help@usf.edu with the following information:
    1. Full course ID number (ex: ABC1234.001F19)
    2. Your full name, email address, and department
    3. Whether a shared directory is needed for this class
    4. A text-based list (in .txt format, not .xls/.xlsx/.doc/.docx format) for each class section containing only the USF NetIDs (not student names, nor U-Numbers) of the users who need access, with 1 NetID per line (example below):
       • 
  • If roster changes/updates (ie: late class adds/drops) are required for an existing SC class, please email rc-help@usf.edu with just the requested additions/removals.

• SC access valid for one semester only, and is reset at the end of every semester.

If roster changes/updated are made (ie: late class adds/drops), please email rc-help@usf.edu with an updated roster.
