What to know
Course sites are archived after the end of a term. Archived sites no longer appear on your dashboard, but remain accessible to you.
Note
Once a course site is archived, instructors can no longer message students via Canvas.
Access prior term course sites
- Click on the "Courses" icon, under the "Dashboard" icon, in the Canvas left navigation.
