Finalizing Grades
First, and importantly, be sure to post final grades within 10 calendar days from the last day of the class. You will begin to receive automated emails starting on the day a class ends, reminding you of any outstanding final grades that need to be entered.
A few other items to note:
- If you are entering a “F” grade for a student, you must also enter in the student’s Last Date of Attendance (LDA).
- For any courses that are eligible for continuation (dissertation, internship, etc.), you should enter in a “X” grade for each student.
- In some cases, an In-progress Grade or "I-Grade" may be provided to give students that time to wrap-up work for the term.
Please see the tabs below for more information on entering grades, I-grades, and changing grades.

Sometimes, students need a bit of extra time to complete coursework. In some cases, an In-progress Grade or "I-Grade" may be provided to give students that time to wrap-up work for the term. Please see the In-progress Grade Policy to determine if this may be appropriate for a student on your roster.
Here is an In-progress grade guide to help you get this information entered into Banner.
