If you are an external committee member who is accessing the Doctoral Portal for the first time, you will first need to register your account. Contact Faculty Technical Support (602-639-7201) for assistance with this process if needed.

ThunderTime is the preceptor side of the Lopes Activity Tracker. Preceptors can access the site through Thundertime.gcu.edu. Your login information is your GCU email (@my.gcu.edu) and password.

If you attempt to reset your password using the Microsoft reset, be sure to setup your recovery options. For information on setting up your recovery options and resetting your password, navigate to the article Password Reset Process.
The Legacy Faculty Portal can be accessed at gculegacyportal.gcu.edu. A new version of the Faculty Portal was released in 2021, and the old one is now referred to as “Legacy”. The Legacy Faculty Portal is still utilized occasionally for submitting midterm and final grades when submission through the LMS is not possible. Your login information for the Legacy Faculty Portal is your GCU username followed by @gcu.edu. Even if your email address ends in @my.gcu.edu, all faculty must use @gcu.edu when logging into the Legacy Faculty Portal.
