New PCS Student - Under Graduate or Graduate Student with Active SAM Account
This page is a resource for alumni currently in a credit program (with an active SAM (or Academic) Account created before August 10, 2023)
Because you applied for your credit program at RRU before we implemented the new Professional and Continuing Studies (PCS) system and/or made changes to how we manage accounts, you need to validate your SAM Account to access programs and courses in PCS.
To do that:
Go to the PCS Student Portal → Validate Account.
Enter your RRU login in long form (username@royalroads.ca). If you do not remember your RRU login for the email you received when you activated your Account or contact Computer Services helpdesk at 250-391-2659 or (866) 808-5429.
Enter your current RRU login password. This is the one you entered when you activated the account. It will be at least 15 characters long.
Confirm you are not a robot, and click Continue.
On the screen following, confirm some information and then you are done.
Now you can log into the PCS Student Portal using your RRU login in long form (username@royalroads.ca format) and register for a course.
