How do I access a UVACanvas Connect course I was added to with my UVA Computing ID?
A UVACanvas Connect administrator or instructor can manually enroll others into a UVACanvas Connect course. If you were added to a UVACanvas Connect course with your active UVA computing ID, below are the three ways you can accept a course invitation and access your course. For additional support, contact the program admin or instructor for the course. If you do not know who the direct contact is, email the UVA Learning Technology Services (LTS) team at [email protected].
Note: If you were added to a course with an email address not ending with @virginia.edu, this article does not apply. Instead, follow the directions in How do I access a UVACanvas Connect course I was added to with a non- "@virginia.edu" email address?
Once someone has added you to a published UVACanvas Connect course, you will receive an email in your UVA email inbox inviting you to join the course.
Open the Course Invitation Email.
Check your UVA email inbox for the course invitation email. The subject will be "Course Invitation" and the sender will be [email protected].
To access the course, select the Get Started button located in the body of the email. This link should direct you to your course in UVACanvas Connect. You may need to login using your NetBadge credentials and complete multi-factor authentication (MFA) in order to access it.
Tip: If you can't find the invitation email, check your junk folder. If you still cannot find the invitation, you can try options 2 or 3, or ask the person who enrolled you for assistance. If you do not know who the direct contact is, email the UVA Learning Technology Services (LTS) team at [email protected].
