Change the Course End Date in Canvas

Term dates in Canvas are set globally and controlled by Banner. These dates determine how courses appear on a user’s Dashboard and in the All Courses list. Depending on the assigned term, a course will display under either Current Enrollments or Past Enrollments.

After a term ends, courses remain visible to instructors and participants but can no longer be modified.

Note: Term dates are not to be used for Incompletes.

Instructors may shorten a course’s availability (less than the default 18 months after the semester’s end date) by adjusting the end date in their course settings.
