Grading and Academic Records

Faculty are responsible for entering and managing student grades in SIS. The following tools and procedures will guide you through midterm grading, final grading, and incomplete coursework.

Grade Roster

Access the Grade Roster under your course tools.
Enter grades for each student according to the grading system designated for the course.
Always click Submit Grades at the bottom of the screen to finalize.
Once submitted, grades cannot be changed in SIS. To make a change, submit a Change of Grade Form.

Grading Systems

Letter Grades: A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, F
