Canvas Course End Date Extended

After receiving faculty requests, and following discussion with the LMIS (Library, Media, Information Services) committee, a change has been made to the end date for Canvas courses. Students will now be able to access Canvas courses 28 days past the end of the semester, instead of 14 days.

 This change will resolve a problem that had occurred between semesters where some students were not able to view feedback on their assignments. For example, student access for Fall 2022 courses ended on December 29 yet grades were due on January 2. 

If you want courses to end earlier please reach out to Educational Technology or follow the steps below: 

  • Click Settings in the course
  • Remain on the “Course Details” tab, and scroll down to the “Ends” section
  • Enter the date you would like the course to end for students 
  • Scroll down and click “Update Course Details” to save your changes
