How do I remove canvas courses that I am no longer in?
Hi @LindsayWolford ...
You'll need to have a conversation with your school's Canvas administrator or someone from their Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education department about removing you from courses in Canvas. It's quite possible that your school will have some policies where they may or may not be able to remove you from courses. You'd need to talk with them about those specifics. Unfortunately, members of the Canvas Community cannot remove you from courses because we don't have access to your school's Canvas environment. Hopefully, you'll be able to connect with folks from your school soon. Good luck to you!
