Please contact your Class Scheduler or administrator if you have questions about your Grade Roster access.

Note: More information about grading is available on the Office of the Registrar website.

Instructions

Enter And Save Your Grades

You have two options to enter grades:  (1) Manually Enter Grades or (2) Use the Canvas Grade Import Process.  Manually Entering Grades is helpful for smaller class sizes. Consider using the Canvas Grade Import method if you have a large class size. Either method will work for any class.

Both guides also review the grade finalization and posting process.

1. After you have manually entered or imported your grades using the Canvas Grade Import process, select the Save button located at the bottom of the grade roster screen.
