Timeline

  1. June-July: Students register for INFO 203.
  2. By August 2 (end of day): Students will receive instructions from their INFO 203 instructor about how to access their Canvas course site. Instructions will be sent via MySJSU messaging and by email. Canvas accounts will be activated by the university before INFO 203 begins. See Getting Started with Canvas.
  3. August 3: INFO 203 course sites become available. Students are strongly encouraged to begin the course work prior to the official start of the semester in order to better prepare for their other classes.
