If a student enrolls within three weeks of the course start date, then they can expect access about 24 hours after enrolling. Access to classroom materials (e.g. Class Announcements, Syllabus, Conferences, etc.) occurs about one week prior to the session start date.

If your course does not appear within this timeframe, please e-mail our WebTycho Administrator or call DSN 225-3696.

Each faculty member can control the menu items in their classroom (either show or hide). Some features available in one class may or may not be available in another. For more information, ask your specific instructor.
