Grade Roster
Click on the grade roster icon to view/edit the grade roster
- Only instructor(s) and TA(s) listed on the course in UDSIS can enter or approve grades.
- Grade Rosters are available in Faculty Center at mid-term, for students who were admitted as freshman to UD and are in their first or second UD semester, and at the end of each semester/session for final grading.
- Additional information on Grading, Grade Rosters and Deadlines is available here.
- Classes that have multiple components (e.g. lecture, lab, discussion) have only one component as “grade-able”.
Grading for a course where a graduate teaching assistant enters the grades and the faculty member approves them:
NOTE: The Graduate TA must have Grade access on the course. Then he/she follows these steps:
1. Grade Roster Type – Select Final Grade or Mid-Term Grade (freshmen only).
2. In the Roster Grade column, enter a grade for each student using the dropdown.
Hit the SAVE button at the bottom of the list periodically as you enter grades. The system will respond with a SAVED message in the top right corner of the screen.
You will receive a warning noting that you have unsaved information on the page. Continue adding grades and click the SAVE button at the bottom of the screen OR next to Approval Status.
Faculty Senate approved change-October 2018: Instructors are now required, for all grades of F or Z, to enter a “Level of Participation” value. If the student’s participation level was “Partial”, a “Last Date of Participation” must be provided listing the last date of class attendance or the date of the last graded assignment. For more information, see details/definitions.
3. For the option: add this grade to selected students. Click the checkbox in the first column next to the student to add, or select all. Then enter the grade and click the button.
4. Display Unassigned Roster Grade Only – (optional) click this box to find any blank grades. Note that it re-numbers the students.
5. When complete, go to the Approval Status dropdown and change it to Ready for Review. The faculty instructor will review and finalize the roster.
Click the SAVE button next to Approval Status and note the SAVED message briefly appears in the top right corner of the screen.
Faculty approval of the Grade Roster:
NOTE: Faculty must have Approve access on the course in UDSIS. Then follow these steps:
- Go to My Schedule and click the Grade Roster icon next to the desired course.
- Review grades and make any changes if needed.
- If grades were entered by a Grad TA, verify all grades were entered and are correct (change grades if necessary) OR enter the grades yourself using the dropdown.
- When complete, go to the Approval Status dropdown and change the status to Approved and hit the SAVE button.
- This change in status should now appear on the course row when you return to My Schedule.
If you receive the error “All students must be graded” when trying to set the Approval status to Approved, this could be for one of two reasons:
- Some grades were left blank. (Try clicking View All, or click Next to view more students on the roster).
- Grade Roster Approval Status for course sections with multiple grading instructors (such as Dissertations or Independent Studies) cannot be set to Approved by faculty. Faculty having to grade students in these sections need only to enter a grade, and hit Save (leaving the roster status as Not Reviewed). Registrar staff review and post these grades throughout grading periods. To verify if the grade was saved, exit and return to the roster, if the save was successful, the grade will still be present.
If you need to change grades after you have “approved” them, but before they have been posted:
- Change the Approval Status to Ready for Review,
- The dropdown grades become available again; change the grade(s) as needed, and
- Change the Approval Status back to Approved.
The Roster Grades will become the Official Grades after the grades are posted by a nightly process run by the Registrar’s Office during grading periods.
Students will be able to see the grade posted the following day in their UDSIS Student Center.
