Approximate Registration to Canvas Sync Times

Canvas sync gets a report from the registration system every few hours, the import process takes around 30 minutes, sometimes longer depending on Canvas's server load.

Registrations before the left column time, will be added to Canvas at the time on the right.
If you register at 8:30 AM you would need to wait until the 10:30 AM import for Canvas to have your enrollments.
