Join a Classroom Project

Your classroom instructor will provide you with a project and access code that will allow you to join the classroom project. Visit our user management page for more information. 

Ohio State users only: osu.edu and buckeyemail.osu.edu are treated as two separate emails in our system. Please provide your professor the appropriate email address. 

All emails will be sent from "no-reply@osc.edu" - all folders should be checked, including spam/junk. If they did not receive this email, please contact OSC Help.

Account Management

You can manage your OSC account via MyOSC, our client porta. This includes:

Access

If your class uses a custom R or Jupyter environment at OSC, please connect to class.osc.edu

If you do not see your class there, we suggest connecting to ondemand.osc.edu

You can log into class.osc.edu or ondemand.osc.edu either using your OSC HPC Credentials or Third-Party Credentials. See this OnDemand page for more information. 

File Transfer

There are a few different ways of transferring files between OSC storage and your local computer. We suggest using OnDemand File App if you are new to Linux and looking to transfer smaller-sized files - measured in MB to several hundred MB. For larger files, please use an SFTP client to connect to  sftp.osc.edu  or Globus.

More Information for New Users

We have a guide for new users to help them figure out the basics of using OSC; included are basics on getting connected, HPC system structure, file transfers, and batch systems.
