Grading Information
More detailed information regarding UChicago grading policies can be found here.
Instructors should access grade rosters and submit final grades electronically via Faculty Access. Instructors can designate a proxy grader who can enter and save grades but cannot submit grades for each course. Only the instructor-of-record may submit or change grades. Instructors will select the final grade to be assigned to the student from a drop-down box. The list of grades in each drop-down box contains only those grades that are available to the students based upon their enrollment status in the section and respective grade policy.
The end of the quarter for Autumn, Winter, and Spring is the Saturday of the 11th week. The end of the Summer Quarter is the Saturday of the 10th week. Degree conferral takes place on the Friday of the 11th week in the Autumn and Winter Quarters, the Friday of 10th week in Summer Quarter, and the Saturday of the 11th week in the Spring Quarter. Grades for graduating students must be submitted online by 11:59PM the Saturday one week before awarding of degrees. (If submitting a paper grade sheet, the deadline is 3:00PM on the Friday one week before awarding of degrees). All other final grades must be submitted to the University Registrar the Tuesday following the end of Winter and Spring Quarters and the Wednesday following the end of Summer and Autumn Quarters.
