Attention Faculty Members:
At the beginning of each semester, all students will have access to their online courses on the opening day of classes.  They should take the "Getting Started with Vista" tutorial that is on their "My Plato" page right away.  We highly recommend that all students review this tutorial before entering classes. 

Please check your true class list (Banner Class List) to be sure that the Plato/Vista list is correct.  Students who add into your classes will be uploaded on a daily basis.  These students may take up to 48 hours to appear in your Plato/Vista Classes. 
Thank you for your patience with this process.
