Mid-term Grading
MID-TERM LIMITED GRADE PROCESSING
Midterm Grade Rosters are produced for these students: FIRST YEARS, NEW TRANSFERS, and READMITS for the current term (1082) as well as the preceding fall term (1077).
Review your roster.
IF YOU HAVE STUDENTS WHO HAVE DEFICIENT GRADES:
- Enter one of the following grades: C-, D+, D, D-, F, FA (Failure due to attendance), or FT (Failure due to tests).
- You are no longer able to enter grades for students who are making a grade of A, B, or C because it is not necessary to enter a grade for these students.
- If there is a “W” grade showing in the “OFFICIAL GRADE” column, the course has been dropped and you do not have to enter a grade for this student.
- After you enter the grades, click SAVE, and EXIT the roster.
NOTE: The “Approval Status” box is now grayed out because it is not a part of the Mid-Term Grading Process.
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE STUDENTS ON YOUR ROSTER MAKING A C- OR BELOW:
- Look for the checkbox labeled “Roster Reviewed, No Deficiencies”, CHECK IT, Click SAVE, and EXIT the roster.

FAQ’s:
Q. I don’t have a grade roster. Why?
A. You have no students in your class that are FY, New Transfers, or New Readmits.
Q. Why won’t it let me “Approve” my roster?
A. You do not have to “Approve” your Midterm Grade Roster, only SAVE and Exit the
Roster. The “Approval Status” box is uniquely used only for End-of-Term Grading.
Q. Should I enter grades for everyone on my roster, even the ones that are doing well?
A. No. Only enter grades for students who are making a C- or below (including FA –
Failure due to attendance, or FT – Failure due to tests).
Q. When I look back at roster, it looks the same. Did I do it right?
A. Yes, the roster will still look the same, but when you SAVE and exit, it is finished.
