I want to change the end date for my course so it will appropriately plan out my assignments in accordance with the schedule I want. How do I change the end date for my courses as a student?
The short answer is that you, as a student, cannot change the Course End Date or the due dates of Assignments.
The Course End Date will most likely be set by your school. The Assignment due dates will be set by your professor. Taking a course on Canvas has the same basic parameters as taking a face-to-face class.
It's really great that you are thinking ahead about your course workload. Your responsibility as a student is to figure out how you can meet the course requirements set by your instructor and your school.
Good luck!

I think I've narrowed down the cause of this issue: Some of these…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
