I can log in, but the classes for which I’m registered do not show under My ANGEL Courses on the My Profile page. What should I do?

If you are an ECC student who has just added the course your name will not appear on the ANGEL roster for up to 24 hours after you signed up for the course. It is also possible that you have been dropped from the roster for any number of reasons, include late payment of fees. If that's the case, and you again add the course it will take up to 24 hours before you can get access to ANGEL.  If neither of the two previous situations applies you should contact the ECC Help Desk at (716) 851-1935 or on the web at http://helpdesk.ecc.edu.

The list of available documentation is on the ANGEL login page under Help and Information Guide  http://angel.ecc.edu
