Canvas Support

FAQs

In a traditional school, you have classrooms. When you go to your classroom, your teacher, class materials and fellow students are all there. Canvas is like your traditional school, but online. When you login to Canvas, you can access your online classes.

You can login to Canvas using your school email address and password.

The first time you register for a class, a student email address is automatically created for you. Your student email is made up of your initials, 5 numbers + @student.sac.edu. For example:

ch37797@student.sac.edu

If this is your first time taking classes with Santa Ana College, your password is your birthday. For example, if your birthday is April 6, 1990, your password will be: Apr061990

Retrieve your email address or reset your password

When you login, you will see the courses you are taking. Your teacher will talk with you about how Canvas will be used in their class.

Important Notes:

  • Most courses will not be visible in Canvas until the start date of class.
  • It can take up to 24 hours after registration for a class to be visible in your canvas account.
