How do I Remove Someone From a Canvas Course?

Published in Canvas Management 2 mins read

To remove someone from a Canvas course, navigate to the "People" tool and follow these steps:


Steps to Remove a User


  1. Locate the User: Access the "People" section within your Canvas course.
  2. Find the User: Identify the user you want to remove from the course list.
  3. Access the Options: Click on the three dots icon, which is typically located to the right of the user's name.
  4. Select "Remove From Course": From the dropdown menu, select the option "Remove From Course." This action will remove the user from the course.


Important Considerations

  • Confirm Action: Canvas may ask you to confirm your decision before permanently removing the user.
  • Data Loss: Removing a student can affect their ability to access graded material or submit assignments. Make sure to communicate your actions with the student as needed.


Step Action
1 Go to the "People" tool
2 Find the user you wish to remove
3 Click the three dots icon associated with user
4 Select "Remove From Course"


Remember to double-check the user before taking action, as removing them is a permanent action. Once removed, they will no longer have access to the course content.
