How do I get a Canvas account?
- Students will automatically have an account created for them.
- Students will be loaded into Canvas courses approximately one-two weeks before each semester begins.
- Students should be able to log in and access their Canvas courses the first week of the semester, once your instructor(s) make the course(s) available.
- An instructor must "Publish" a course before a student will see it listed under Courses. Until at least one course is available to you, the top navigation bar shows as Home.
