Canvas is the platform where your course resides. However, the UC Online version of Canvas is independent of any UC campus' version, so you'll need to use a special login screen to access your UC Online course.

All students should start with the UC Online login page (see screenshot below). If you are a current UC student, click to expand the UC Campus Student and Faculty menu and then click on your home campus. This will load the appropriate login screen from your host campus, and you should use your campus credentials to log in. For non-UC students, simply click the Guest and Non-UC Student link and then enter the credentials provided during the course registration process.

Online courses are available for login approximately one week before the start of instruction. If you completed registration after the course has opened, you may have to wait up to 32 hours before you can log in. If you're having trouble logging in, please click the Help with Login link at the top of the login screen to create a help ticket.
