Why can\u2019t I see my course when I log in?<\/h2><\/div>
Reason 1:<\/strong>\u00a0Courses will typically open up the first day of class. Some instructors may open them earlier. If it is the day class starts or later and you cannot access your online course, contact Distance Ed Help Desk or your instructor immediately.<\/em><\/p>\n

Reason 2:<\/strong>\u00a0This also may be because a course has ended and no longer shows on your dashboard. Select \u201cCourses<\/strong>\u201d on the left hand navigation bar, select \u201cAll Courses<\/strong>.\u201d This will give you a list of your current, past, and future enrollment.<\/div>

Will I be dropped from my class if I do not log in on the first day?<\/h2><\/div>

If you have difficulties logging into your course let your instructor know to avoid being dropped.<\/em><\/div>
