Submit Canvas Assignments with Confidence!

This message has been approved by Robert Fuselier, Director of the Office of Distance Learning, for distribution to students.

Is the assignment you submitted in Canvas the one you want your professor to grade? Avoid submission headaches by verifying assignment submissions in Canvas for the following:

  • Canvas has confirmed the assignment submission.
  • The submitted assignment is complete (no missing pages).
  • The submitted assignment is the correct version or file.

Though you can use the Canvas mobile app to submit assignments in a pinch, the best way to guarantee successful submission is to use Canvas via a browser. If you run into technical issues when submitting an assignment, send a ticket to ODL Technical Support right away (regardless of time of day). This ensures that technical problems are identified and addressed as soon as possible.
