Question
How do I add a new student, who enrolled late, into Canvas?
How do I add a Teacher's Assistant to a current course in Canvas?
How do I add a teacher to an open course in Canvas?
I need to be added to a Canvas course taught by another professor
My TA is out, and I need access to their Canvas course

I am unable to add someone to a course from a prior term — the
Add People
button is greyed out
User
Canvas Instructor
Environment
10185: Canvas
Rationale
Any instructor in the course can add a user to Canvas course
for the current term
. Course in prior terms are closed and users will not be added
Students who are officially enrolled in the course, even late, will automatically populate into the course when the course updates run throughout the day
When a student's Banner record is officially updated, the student will be added to the course
Adding a user without a Miami account or manually adding a user with Miami credentials but not listed in
Add People
will create a duplicate account, and the actual Banner account will not be connected to the new account. Accounts should only be set up through the proper procedure in Admissions, grad school, or Human Resources through Banner
Resolution
This Canvas Guide article will show you how to add users to a course
Students (users) cannot be added to a course after the term is closed
. (In other words, if the course is from a prior closed term, you will not be able to add users.)
You must extend the end-date of the course and the section to re-open the course and allow user access
before the term ends
If the course was imported and the dates were not removed or shifted, users cannot be enrolled if the start and end dates are from the past or in the future
You must change the start and end dates for the course
Do you need a to give access to your course content to another instructor? Follow the KB instructions at
Request: Canvas / Create a new project site
If you do not have access to the course, contact IT Help by phone at 513-529-7900 or by live chat session at
