Grading: Click on the Grade Roster icon to the left of the class you wish to grade. Once ALL grades have been entered for ALL students listed on the grade roster, change the approval status to APPROVED and click SAVE.  

  • If ALL grades have NOT been entered for ALL students listed on the grade roster, click SAVE. This will save the grades that have been entered.  Keep the approval status as NOT REVIEWED. You can return later to enter additional grades.   
    • Once ALL grades have been entered for ALL students listed on the grade roster, change the status to APPROVED and click SAVE.   

Grade Submission Message: A message will appear once the status is changed to APPROVED and click SAVE. The message displays: “You have successfully submitted your midterm grades”.   

  • If ALL grades have not been entered for ALL students listed on the grade roster, you can NOT change the status to APPROVED; this includes classes taught by multiple instructors.  
    • Once ALL grades have been entered for ALL students listed on the grade roster, change the status to APPROVED and click SAVE. The message will appear as noted above. 

Students Who Have Withdrawn from a Class: Midterm grade rosters contain every student enrolled in the class, including those who have withdrawn (dropped after 30th day). Students who have withdrawn will have a W grade already posted on the grade roster. 

Students Who Are Auditing a Class: Provide the ‘AU” (which stands for audit), using the drop-down menu.
