The Course Merge Request Form was created so instructors could request that multiple sections of a course be combined into a single course shell in Canvas.
Note: If you are requesting multiple merges, please submit a separate submission per request.
Most requests are processed within 24 hours unless submitted over the weekend or on a holiday. You will receive a confirmation email once the request has been completed.
Note: it is not recommended to merge courses after a semester has started and students have submitted assignments.
Submitting the form
You will need the following information
- Date Requested
- Your First and Last Name
- Semester (selected from dropdown)
- Courses to be merged (e.g., BIOL-100 Sec 001 and BIOL-100 Sec 002)
Be sure to include the course abbreviation and section number. - Your CI Email
- Which course should be used as the primary shell? (e.g., BIOL-100 Sec 002). If no preference, you can leave this question blank.
