Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I add or "crash" an online class after the last day of registration?
- Students need to contact the instructor shown on Webadvisor, directly, to be added to an online class. Instructor emails are found on the department home page or you can use the STAFF DIRECTORY to locate their information. Please note that students are not allowed to add a course after the last day to drop for the semester so give yourself at least 24 hours before the last day to drop to successfully get added. Additionally, if you are not signed up for a course, it is the instructor's choice to approve your add. If the class is too far along, the instructor may not allow you to add.
- Where do I find which books I need for my class?
- If the instructor requires a book for the course, you may find this information by going to the Cuyamaca College Bookstore link and searching your courses. You may also log into the course on Canvas and look in the syllabus for the book. If the information is pending at the bookstore and your course is not open on Canvas, I encourage you to email the instructor.
- Where do I access my course to see content, grades, assignments, and other information?
- The courses are provided through Canvas, our online learning management system. To access Canvas you can go to the Cuyamaca College home page and select the Canvas icon at the top right of the screen. You will need to log into Canvas to see your courses, under "Courses" on the left side of the screen. If you are using the Canvas App, please refer to the Canvas Mobile Guide for information to navigate the App.
- I am logged into Canvas but I still can't see my courses. What do I do now?
- Instructors are still working on courses prior to the semester starting and may not publish the course until the first day. If you need information about the course prior to the first day of class, please email your instructor with questions. If the first day of class has started and you are still unable to see the course, please email the instructor. If there is no response from your instructor, contact the Student Help Desk.
