Within 24 hours of registering for classes for the upcoming semester, a new student will be able to log into Canvas.

Online courses are made available automatically on the first day of the semester.

In face-to-face classes, Canvas access to the course is determined and controlled by the instructor.  If you cannot see the course, it is probably because the instructor has not yet published it for students to access.  Check with your instructor for more information.

Watch the Canvas Overview for Students video below for a detailed demonstration of the Dashboard, Courses, Groups, Inbox, and Help global navigation menu, as well as how to view grades and submit assignments.

Special Note:  The Inbox in Canvas does not replace your Student Email Outlook Inbox in Office 365.  The Canvas Inbox only allows communications with your instructors and other students in your classes.

Emails from others at NC State, such as, your advisor, the Financial Aid Office, the Cashier’s Office, Tutoring, or Academic Services will only be possible by logging into your student account at Office 365 Outlook Inbox, opens in a new window.  For more information see the Office 365 & Student Email tab.

Student Usernames are created using the following formula:
Note:  usernames are all in lower case – No capital letters.

For example, the username for a student by the name of  John A. Student, born on July 04 would be:  studeja0704

If you do not have five letters in your last name the system will use your entire last name. If you do not have a middle name the system will skip adding your middle initial. For names that have spaces or punctuation the system will leave it out. E.g.: the last name O’Connor will be “oconn” in your username, and De La Hoya will be “delah”. . .

Synchronized Password
Note:  Passwords are case sensitive.

All student passwords for MyNC, Office 365 Email, Aviso Engage, AdvisorTrac, Canvas, Ellucian Go, and My Password Services will be synchronized (and if changed, the password will change for all software applications simultaneously).  Your default (NC State assigned original password) will consist of the following:

• NCSC (Effective for all new accounts created on or after May 11, 2023)
• First two letters of your first name (capitalized)
• Followed by the last four of your social security number
• Followed by the first two letters of your last name (lower case).

For example:  The initial password for John A. Student with SSN ending in 8833 would be:  JO8833st or NCSCJO8833st (Effective for initial passwords created on or after May 11, 2023)

Starting May 11, 2023,  NC State students will be required to change their NC State password once per year, but passwords will require a 12-character length, using 3 out of 4 of the following elements – Upper case, lower case, numbers, or special characters (above keys 1-8 only).  Students will be required to use the 12-character length at their next scheduled password change. . To maintain their synchronized login, passwords can only be changed through Password Services or by calling the IT Service Desk at 419-755-4734.

See the Password Services tab for more information about enrolling in and using Password Services to update your password for all of your applications – MyNC, Canvas, Office 365, etc. simultaneously.
