Canvas has six user roles: Student, Writing Advisor/Subject Tutor, TA, Course Assistant, Designer, and Teacher.
"Student" is linked to myPugetSound.
- To add a "Student" to your course please have them officially enroll in your course. Contact the Registrar's Office at 253.879.3217 or by email at registrar@pugetsound.edu for more assistance.
- When a student officially adds or drops your course, no action is needed on your part to add or remove them from Canvas. Canvas will automatically add or remove them from your course, usually within one hour.
- If someone is auditing a course it may take longer for them to appear in Canvas.
To add users in other roles please refer to the attached chart, and fill out the service request form. You may need to provide the following information:
- Your name and email address
- Full name(s) and Puget Sound email address(es) of person(s) to add to your course
- Semester, course, and section(s)
- What level of access does each person need? Refer to chart below or attached chart.
*If a student is manually removed from a Canvas course, they will continue to be re-added until they are officially removed via myPugetSound
**Please reach out to Educational Technology to add or remove other teachers, TAs, course/lab assistants, etc.
