Enroll in a class
You can self-enroll into a class in two ways:
- By searching for the class
- By using the provided Class Link
IMPORTANT: You'll automatically be enrolled into the class with the default class role when you self-enroll using a class search or a Class Link. Example — Consider a class with a default class role of student. If you've been asked by an instructor to enroll yourself in a class as a teaching assistant with an instructor role, your instructor will need to manually enroll you into the class with the desired role.
NOTE: You won't need to search for a class or use a Class Link if your instructor has notified you that you've already been enrolled into their class. To know if you've been enrolled by your instructor as a student, you'll see the classes that you're enrolled in on your System Homepage in the Classes I Am Taking pane. Check out View my classes.
The System Homepage will indicate if you aren't yet enrolled in any classes.
TIP: If the class you're searching for doesn't appear in the list of available classes and you weren't provided a Class Link, it could be because the instructor has decided to manage your enrollment for you. Contact your instructor to become enrolled in the class.
Enroll using a class search
To self-enroll into a class using a class search:
NOTE: You'll be self-enrolled into a class with the default class role regardless of your system role (Example — a user with a system role of instructor can perform a class search and self-enroll into a class as a student if the default class role is set to student).
Click Enroll in a Class on the System Homepage.
TIP: You'll also be able to click Enroll in a Class from your user profile page if you're already enrolled in at least one other class. Check out Access and edit my user profile.
Enter the name of the class that you want to self-enroll into and click Search.
TIP: Alternatively, you can browse the list of classes in the Available Classes pane without performing a class name search.
TIP: If there are no results that match your search criteria for self-enrollment, try searching for a different class name or contact your instructor.
Select the check box of the class that you want to self-enroll in from the available classes results.
NOTE: A class won't appear in the list of available classes if:
- You're already enrolled in the class
- Your instructor has set date restrictions (Example — your instructor might have set an enrollment date. If you're searching for a class before or after its enrollment date, it won't appear in the list of available classes.)
- Your instructor has configured the class to only allow self-enrollment via the provided Class Link (check out the Enroll using a Class Link section of this help topic)
- Your instructor has configured to the class to not permit self-enrollment by class search or Class Link
TIP: Can't find your class with a class search and weren't provided a Class Link? Contact your instructor.
NOTE: You can select multiple check boxes to self-enroll into more than one class at a time.
Click Enroll.
A confirmation appears to summarize the class(es) that you're enrolling into as a student. Click Confirm.
NOTE: You can deselect the check box of a listed class(es) if you accidentally selected a class that you don't want to self-enroll into.
Alternatively, you can click Cancel and return to the Self-enroll page at step 2.
The class that you just self-enrolled into as a student appears listed on your System Homepage in the Classes I Am Taking pane.
NOTE: After enrolling in a class, click Enter on the class pane to access its Class Homepage.

Now that you've searched for a class and self-enrolled into it, you're ready for:

Enroll using a Class Link
If your instructor has provided you with a Class Link, you can use this to self-enroll into the class.
TIP: Can't find your class with a class search and weren't provided a Class Link? Contact your instructor.
To self-enroll using a Class Link:
Paste the Class Link that your instructor has provided into your browser (Example — your instructor may have emailed you the Class Link).
The Class Link navigates you to the Möbius log in page of your organization. Log in to Möbius.
TIP: If you don't yet have a Möbius account, click Create an account on the Möbius log in page. Check out Create an account for help with the full registration process.
The registration form notifies you that after your account is created, you'll be automatically enrolled into the class associated with the Class Link that was used to access this page.
After completing the registration process, you can resume at step 3.
You're automatically enrolled in the class as a student and navigated directly to the student Class Homepage of the class associated with the Class Link.
NOTE: Return to the System Homepage to see that the class is now listed in the Classes I Am Taking pane.
