How to Login to Classes

You can access your online class on the first day of the term. Depending on the instructor, some classes may be available up to 7 days prior to the class start date. If your class start is later in the semester, you won’t be able to access your class until closer to that day.(NOTE: Faculty/Staff have different log in Instructions)

Where to Login to Canvas

How to Join a Zoom Meeting
