Remote Student Terminal Access

In order to access your Student Terminal Session outside the library or computer labs you will need your own laptop or PC. Follow the instructions below to set up remote access.

  • Windows
    • Download the "Student Terminal File for Windows" from the list on the bottom of this page.
    • When prompted, save it to your Desktop.
    • Double-click on the file to start your connection.
    • You may see a login box or a "Windows Security" box that has "STUDENTS\" already filled in. Leave this in place and add your username to it. For example, if your username is pdjones66, the field should be "STUDENTS\pdjones66". Use the same password that you would use if you were in one of the labs
    • If you see a "Log on to:" field below the username and password, this must be set to "STUDENTS"
    • If you see a message about the shortcut being invalid, run Windows Update and install all recommended updates to be sure you have the latest Remote Desktop Connection software. The IT office cannot do this for you unless you have a Cumberland-issued laptop.
  • Mac
    • Mac users will need to download and install Microsoft Remote Desktop from the Mac App Store. The latest version can be found here.
    • After installing, download the file listed on the bottom of this page. We recommend saving it to your desktop.
    • Warning for Safari users: The Safari web browser sometimes adds a .xml extension to the end of the file when downloading. Be sure to remove the extension so the file ends in .rdp
    Download .rdp file
