Favoriting a Course in Canvas

Last modified 6/26/2024

Favoriting a course will make the course easier to access and have them appear at the top of your dashboard, providing easier access and a faster shortcut to the course. 

To favorite a course, open your course list from the Course tab on the sidebar. 

Once you are in the All Courses menu, click on the star icon to favorite the course. 

If a course is already favorited its star will be filled in with color. 

Note

A maximum of twenty courses is allowed to be favorited. After twenty are selected, Canvas will choose twenty random courses for display.
