How do I override student final grades?

The Final Grade Override feature allows instructors the flexibility to adjust final grades to match grades submitted to Axess. 

Important

  • Override grades are manual entries - automatic calculation is not possible.
  • CSV imports do not support override scores.
  • At least one assignment grade must be entered before entering an override grade. 
  • Letter grades can only be entered for courses using a course grading scheme.
    • The lowest percentage of a grade range is used when entering non-numeric values. For example, if the A- range is 90-93%, entering an A- will pull 90%.
  • Students see numeric and letter grades if the total course grade is visible to students and a course grading scheme is enabled.

Note: Once you start to override grades, students only see the Override grade. New assignment grades do not inform the override grade.
