  •  It can take up to 24 hours from the time you officially add a course in MyCSUSM until

  • If it has been over 24 hours since you officially enrolled through MyCSUSM the course might not have been made visible by the instructor yet.  Instructors choose when to make their course visible to students.

  • There is a way you can check whether the course is visible or not:

    • While logged in, go to the Cougar Courses homepage and the search bar near the bottom.
      Search by the name and number of the course (for example, Fall 2020 BIOL 104).

    • If you see the course (and correct section) listed there it means the course is active/visible
      to students, but you might not have been added yet. It you need immediate access,
      contact the instructor.

    • If you do not see the course (and correct section) that means the course is not yet
      active/visible to students.  In that case, you will need to contact the instructor
      to ask when it will be made visible.
