"My class isn't showing in Canvas"

Summary

What to do if you cannot see your class in Canvas

Body

First, please be sure you are registered in the class. If you are on the waitlist, you will not see the class, so please be sure you are registered. You can confirm your registration in mySierra by going to (1) More Links Here in the “Registration and Classes” tile then (2) Go Now in the “View My Class Schedule” tile.


 

While looking at your class schedule, please be sure to check the start and end dates of your class. If your class is scheduled to start this week or has already begun, please reach out to your instructor directly as they are the only ones who can publish the class for student access. Your instructor’s email address is listed on the Schedule Details panel of your Registration Information (View My Class Schedule).

If the class doesn’t start yet, like if it is an 8-week course that starts after the mid-semester break, you will need to wait to access it until it starts or wait for it to show up until then. Here is an example where you can see the course dates; click on the link for your instructor's name to reveal their email address:
