Midterm Grade Policy

Students are advised to be in contact with instructors throughout the semester to remain current on their course progress. To help students monitor their academic performance, instructors will post midterm grades for all undergraduate students. Each semester, the registrar will establish and announce the dates for instructors to enter midterm grades in and for students and advisors to access them.

The midterm grade is an advisory grade and is not a permanent part of a student's academic history. It is not used to determine enrollment status, dismissal, or eligibility for financial aid, housing, or athletics.

Procedure for Entering Midterm Grades

Faculty members are able to enter midterm grades (A, B, C, D, F, or N) for undergraduate students on class rosters in which he/she is the primary instructor the week following the first half of academic semester. Exact dates in which the midterm grades may be entered can be found on the Academic Calendar.

Midterm grades may not be entered after the deadline has passed. Students will be able to view their midterm grades once the faculty deadline to enter the grades has passed. Please consult the online academic calendar for each semester when preparing your course syllabus for future semesters.
