UPDATE: As part of our ongoing response to the recent Canvas global disruption, some Canvas-related tools, features and integrations are currently being reconfigured.

At this time, full functionality has not yet been restored. Our teams are actively working to restore full functionality as quickly and safely as possible. We ask that you please avoid using impacted tools until further notice.

As a standard best practice, we also recommend clearing your browser cache and cookies prior to using Canvas LMS.

Additional updates regarding final exams, Canvas status and other details can be found at https://t.co/VyomcJUXWv.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Canvas is currently unavailable university-wide. This appears to be a broader nationwide issue impacting institutions across the country. Users should not attempt to engage with or respond within the Canvas system until further notice. Our teams are actively monitoring the situation and working with the vendor toward resolution. Additional updates and communications will be shared as more information becomes available.

UTSA PD responded to a medical incident at Laurel Village student housing in the early evening hours of Wed., April 29. SAPD also responded. The situation did not present a safety concern to the campus community, and there is no ongoing safety concern.

[TxDOT San Antonio @TxDOTSanAntonio]

Wet roads = less traction, longer stopping distance, and higher risk. Give yourself extra space, turn your headlights on, and stay alert.

And remember: Turn Around, Don’t Drown.
It only takes a small amount of water to sweep a vehicle away.

[UTSA Police Department @UTSA_Police]

As part of the Texas Department of Transportation's Loop 1604 expansion project, the exit to La Cantera Parkway, which provides quick access to the UT San Antonio Main Campus and surrounding shopping centers, will permanently close. Your usual route may no longer be available.

[UTSA Police Department @UTSA_Police]

This change will likely add additional time to your commute, so please plan ahead, allow extra travel time, and stay alert for new traffic patterns. According to TxDOT, the closure is scheduled to begin May 1, weather permitting.

Statewide Emergency Alert Test – TODAY, April 2, 2026

Today, April 2, 2026, at the request of the Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM), a statewide test of emergency alerting systems will take place between 10:00 AM and 12:30 PM.

Because jurisdictions across Texas may also be participating, you may receive more than one test alert during the testing window. This is only a test. No action is required.
