Courses will become available on the first day of your subscription period. For UWM courses, please see the Timing of Access to Courses in the Canvas chart below.

- Log out of Canvas.
- Close all browser tabs / windows and navigate back to uws.instructure.com. Again, be sure to uncheck the “Remember my selection for this session” box.

Timing of Access to Courses in Canvas (UWM)
Access to your courses in Canvas is automated based on when you register for courses (and provided that your subscription period has started). Below is a timeline of when you can expect to have Canvas access to your courses upon registering. If you register for a course after your subscription period begins, it’s important to note when you will be able to access the course in Canvas.
