Pitzer Canvas support

Please contact the Help Desk for assistance with Pitzer Canvas.

Pitzer Canvas also includes 24/7 support directly from Instructure via live chat or telephone. The 24/7 support option is found through the Help button at the left of Canvas, and it’s a great option for questions outside of regular work hours, weekends, and holidays.

Each college in the Claremont Colleges Consortium has its own Canvas instance. The undergraduate colleges, Pitzer, Pomona, Claremont McKenna, Scripps, and Harvey Mudd have enabled federated trust links between schools. This enables students and faculty to login at their home college Canvas and see all of their courses, even those from other colleges.

Claremont Graduate University and Keck Graduate Institute have separate Canvas instances, and credentials are needed from these schools to access their Canvas.
