Background

  • Some courses (like Continuing Education ones) allow for outside users to login to our Canvas Instance for their class, this article explains how they login. These courses are typically created/supported by AOI.
  • Nearly all students within the Master Gardeners Program will have a Non-WSU Canvas User Account.

Issue/Problem

  •  Non-WSU User with Personal Email Address is looking to login to Canvas for a course

Solution

Answer for user:

If you have a non-WSU email address, you will log in at https://wsu.instructure.com/login/canvas using the following credentials:

  • Email: your full email address
  • Password: first initial+last name+noncredit

For example, if your name was Robert Smith and your email address is bobsmith@test.com, your email and password would be:

  • Email: bobsmith@test.com
  • Password: rsmithnoncredit

To change your Non-WSU Canvas password (for users without an SIS ID), please follow these instructions .
