How to: Login to Canvas

Summary

In order to login to Canvas (and other campus related technology), you will need to use your NetID which is short for "Network Identification". If you haven't signed up for your NetID yet, you should create one now. If you are just creating your NetID, it can take anywhere from 24-48 from the time you create your account until you can see your course(s) in Canvas.  If you have created a NetID but it has been a while since you have used it, your username is usually the first portion of your Bellevue email address (everything before the @ sign). You can also lookup your username online, you will need to know your SID & PIN to do so. To lookup your username (NetID) click here.
