Students will be able to access Blackboard on the first day of class or approximately 2 hours after Late Registration. If you cannot access Blackboard and these timeframes have passed, please contact the Registrar's office to ensure you are enrolled in a course and that there are no holds on your account.

Go to the Wrangler Portal now to access Blackboard

With your Wrangler Portal, you’ll be able to access ALL of your Odessa College systems in one place protected by one password. This includes Blackboard!

To learn more about the Wrangler Portal and read the answers to some FAQs, click HERE

See more info about your login to access Blackboard below:

Once at your Wrangler Portal, you will need your OC Student Email and Password in order to login.
- Your Odessa College email address is made up of:
  - the first initial of your first name,
  - the first initial of your last name,
  - your student ID number,
  - and will end in @odessa.edu.
- So, for example, if your name is Jane Doe and your OC ID number is 1234567, your email address will be jd1234567@odessa.edu.
- If you’ve never accessed your Odessa College email, your default password should be OCoc plus the last 4 digits of your social security number.
  - For example, if your social security number is 123-45-6789, your default password would be OCoc6789.
  - If you didn't include a social security number on your application or registration, you will use OCoc plus the last four digits of your OC ID number. For example, if your OC ID number is 1234567, your default password would be OCoc4567.
  - Once you have successfully signed in, you will be required to change your password on first sign in.
- More questions? Call the IT Help desk at 432-335-6677 (you must call, no email support is available)
  - Click here for your student ID, click "Prospective Students" & choose "What's my User ID"?
Once logged in to Blackboard, you will see a welcome message & your courses listed on the right-hand side.
If your course is not listed or your login does not work, please contact Blackboard Support.
