As a new student an invitation to your New Life Gmail account invitation was sent to your personal email account. Please check your spam/junk folder to make sure it is not there. If you are using a mobile phone, you probably will have to add your New Life Gmail account to your mail client in the settings for your phone. Google Classroom and Google Meet are available for Android and Apple phones. Your New Life Gmail account is for school only. Refrain from sending spam and group emails. Keep your email credentials saved, safe, and private. Do not share them.
How to find and enter your class(es)
To enter your classes you must be logged into your New Life Gmail account first. If you have personal Gmail accounts other than your school Gmail, then you may have difficulty finding and logging into your New Life account. First, log out of your other Gmail accounts. Then log into your New Life Gmail account.
- Right before your class begins, log into your New Life email account. Check to make sure you are in your New Life account by looking at the icon in the top right corner.
- From inside your New Life Gmail inbox, go to the Google Apps icon in the top right corner and select the Classroom icon to see your class(es).
- Select the appropriate class and right before it begins click the Meet Link under the course title to enter. Be prepared for attendance to be taken. Turn your audio and camera on. Please have a quiet and appropriate environment and dress.
- Note: If you do not see your classes, you may be in the wrong email account. If you have a personal Gmail account, remember to switch to your New Life Gmail account. Always check which account you are in by looking in the top right corner at the user icon. You will not see your Google Classroom course(s), if you are using another Gmail account.
Remember to always access your New Life classes through your New Life Gmail account. You can do your assignments, attend classes, leave any messages there. Also check your class calendar and shared documents for any assignments. Do all school business from your New Life Gmail account, not from your personal email. (only in emergencies).
