Signing Up

Whether you’re an admin getting your program started or a student joining your class, here’s how to create your account on Stack.

For Admins

If you’re a media teacher, advisor, or program lead:
  1. Go to stack.events
  2. Click the Get Started button
  3. Select a plan and complete the registration form
Once you’ve subscribed, you’ll receive:
  • Your own Stack instance (e.g. yourname.stack.events)
  • A full admin dashboard to manage students, submissions, equipment, and more
Already signed up? Head to your custom URL and log in.
Note: Only admins can create a new instance — students must join through their teacher’s link.

For Students

If you’re a student, your teacher will send you a direct link to your school’s instance — something like: https://demo.stack.events

Here’s what to do:

  1. Open the link your teacher or advisor gave you
  2. Scroll to the bottom of the login screen
  3. Click Sign Up
You’ll be taken to the registration form.

Creating Your Student Account

After clicking Sign Up, follow these steps:
  1. Enter your school email
    Use the email address your admin provided (usually your school-issued email).
  2. Check your inbox
    You’ll receive a confirmation email. Click the verification link to continue.
  3. Create your password
    After verifying, you’ll be asked to set your password.
  4. Choose your class
    If your admin hasn’t pre-assigned you to a class, you’ll be prompted to select one from a dropdown list.
Once complete, you’ll be redirected to your student dashboard.
