In Catalog, you can enable self registration for a course listing. When self registration is enabled, students who do not have a Canvas account can sign up for one when they register for a course in Catalog.
Note: When self registration is disabled, students must have a Canvas account created for them by an administrator before they can enroll in a Catalog listing.
