Midterm Grade Submission Instructions
Important Notes About Midterm Grades
- All First Year undergraduates must be graded for all courses regardless of the grade (A - F).
- If an upperclassman during the first half of a semester is doing unsatisfactory work (i.e. C-, D, or F), you must report this to the Registrar using Canvas or Grade Submission. Instructors will need to affirm if there are no students in a class receiving deficient grades by noting that in .
- "X" grades cannot be assigned at midterm.
- If a student has not been attending class, assign him/her the grade he/she has earned thus far.
- Graduate, Graduate Business, and Law students DO NOT receive midterm grades
- If you are assigning a deficient grade of "C-", "D" or "F", you will note that there are grades and indicators of C-1, C-2, C-3….F5, F6 to allow you to select the deficient grade and the most appropriate reason for the deficient grade. Only one deficiency grade and reason combination can be selected per student. [Example a midterm grade of "D" for a student with "Excessive Absences" would result in be a D3 grade. This same student may have also had poor test scores, but the primary reason has been his/her poor attendance.]
