What to do? I Still Do Not See My Course(s) in Canvas...

Students can check their emails and their schedules in LoLA to ensure the course was not cancelled.

Students should also check to make sure their course(s) are not mini B course(s). When does your course(s) start? Does your course(s) start in August or October/January or March?

If your class starts in October or March, you are enrolled in a mini B course(s). This could be why your course(s) are not viewable on your Canvas dashboard.
