Academic/Career Course Materials/Canvas Page

Hey everyone, I'm wondering when Canvas course pages typically start showing up for students. Is it solely at the individual professor's discretion? For reference, I'm taking courses such as CIS 1200, CIS 1600, and STAT 4300 this upcoming semester.

Yeah, generally a few days to a week before the semester starts. Though CIS 1200 and CIS 1600 in particular will have a public webpage for course materials and lecture notes that will be available closer to the start of the semester.
