Most Fall 2024 courses officially start on August 26, 2024. They should appear on your Canvas dashboard on the first day of classes and only after your instructors publish them.
Similarly, remember second block courses will be available on October 21, 2024.
Stay Notified!
for your Canvas account to ensure that you stay notified of any changes to your courses. We recommend changing the notification setting for Announcements to “Notify immediately.”
Your Course List
You can view your Fall 2024 courses by clicking on the Courses icon 
, then "All Courses," and scrolling down to the bottom of the list where it says "Future Enrollments." After the first Monday, your active courses should pop up on your current course list.
Note: your upcoming courses are best displayed from the website when accessed with your internet browser, as opposed to the Canvas for Students mobile app, which has limited display options.
You can add or remove courses from your dashboard by clicking the star icon next to a course in your list but only if the course has been published and the start date has passed. If you want to remove a course from your dashboard, just click the star icon and it will no longer appear.

Unsubmitted Assignments and Assignments Awaiting Grading
The Canvas grade book is only accurate if the entered scores are complete and current. If your professor has not yet entered grades for your missing assignments, exams, or any other course requirements, then Canvas will not apply these scores to your overall grade in the course. You can see a more accurate approximation of your current grade by using the . If you have missing work and it is not reflected in the Canvas grade book, you can enter a zero for the score to see how this would affect your grade once it is graded. Please contact your professor if you have questions about your grades.
