I also have this question but I am a student.  I don't know how to get the class I've registered for to show up on Canvas.

Hi @RB17 ...

I saw you had posted your question as a reply to the "New course" topic.  However, that question was from an instructor.  Since you are a student, I decided to move your question and make it a separate topic on its own so that we don't have two different questions going on within the same topic.  I hope this is ok with you.

Now...on to your question...

It's a bit hard to troubleshoot this here in the global Canvas Community website.  Unfortunately, we don't have access to Pasadena City College's (I hope I have your school right) Canvas environment or any of your courses.  Also, we don't know their registration process or how/when you eventually get enrolled into courses within Canvas.  These are all questions that would be best answered by folks at Pasenda City College.  For example, you might try reaching out to their Canvas administrator or someone from their Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Learning department.  Or, if they have some sort of on-campus help desk staff, they might be able to help as well.  I took a couple minutes to see if I could find any support pages for you on their website, and I came across the following:

Also, in your Canvas environment, have you checked your "Courses" >> "All Courses" screen to see if your courses are showing up there?  It's possible that you are already enrolled in these courses, but you just don't have access to the course content yet because your instructor has not "published" the course.  Instructors must "publish" a course to make it available to you and your classmates.  If the course start date hasn't happened yet, the instructor may be waiting until the actual start date of the course (or a couple days prior) to publish the course.  You can see if a course is published or not on the "All Courses" page.

How do I view all my Canvas courses as a student?

Once you have access to your course(s), you can place a star next to the course(s) to mark it/them as a "favorite".  Here's a Guide on how to do that, too:

How do I customize my Courses list as a student?

Hopefully one or more of these links and resources will be helpful to you, and hopefully you'll be able to connect with someone soon to get things worked out.

Good luck to you!
