Change of Grades or Late Submission

Once the grading period for the quarter has ended, grades cannot be submitted through online grading tools. However, change of grade requests or late submissions can be submitted through the Office of the University Registrar’s online Grade Change Request form. Due to the need for manual processing for submissions through this form, it will be 2-4 business days until the new grades appear on the student record.

For questions on change of grades or late grade submission contact ugradoff@uw.edu.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use online grading?

To get started, log in to GradePage. Once grading has opened for the quarter, select the course to grade and enter grades directly.

How secure is online submission of grades?

The security of grade submission is taken seriously by the Registrar and its campus partners. Submitting grades online using GradePage represents a significant security improvement over a paper-based process. For example, online grade submission eliminates the need for people to process paper-based grades, which reduces unnecessary observation of or interference with grades.

All online grade submissions:

  • may only be made by the instructor(s) of record or the approved delegates;
  • are made over a secure Internet connection (https);
  • are logged and archived to provide the audit trail required by the University’s Department of Audits; and
  • cannot be changed online via GradePage. Change requests must be submitted to the Registrar’s office to be changed. Please use the online Grade Change Request Form.

What is the deadline for online grade submission?

The deadline for online grade submission is 5 p.m. on the Tuesday following the final day of the quarter.

This deadline is posted in a number of places, including the University’s Academic Calendar and within GradePage.

Why is the grade deadline so early?

There are a number of processes that rely upon student grade information, including Low Scholarship cancellation, Honors calculations, student financial aid eligibility, prerequisite cancellation, and conferral of degrees.

Some of these processes (such as prerequisite cancellation) occur right after the grade submission deadline, so timely grade submission is important. Other processes occur soon after the grade submission deadline (within the week) and students and faculty need time to review their grades and correct any submission errors before the processes are run. Failure to submit grades by the deadline can result in a number of severe problems for students.

What do I do if I miss the grade submission deadline?

Once the grading period for the quarter ends, instructors cannot submit online grades through GradePage. However, change of grade requests or late submissions can be submitted through the Office of the University Registrar’s online Change of Grade Request form. Late grades received through this form are processed manually, so it will take 2-4 business days until the new grades appear on student records.

For questions on change of grades or late grade submission, contact the Graduation and Academic Records Office at ugradoff@uw.edu.

Can I turn in late grades with GradePage?

No. Please submit late grades using the online Change of Grade Request form.

What about off-calendar courses?

Grades for off-calendar courses cannot be submitted through GradePage at this time. Please use the online Change of Grade Request form. Enabling online submission for these courses is under review.

How do I view past grades?

Use GradePage to view grades from the past four quarters. The past online submissions history only displays grade values submitted using GradePage and does not reflect any subsequent changes made to the grade values after submission. If instructors need to reference an official final grade from a previous quarter not listed or a grade submitted or modified through the Registrar’s office Change of Grade Request form, contact ugradoff@uw.edu.

Can someone besides the instructor submit grades online?

Yes, GradePage includes a delegate system for this purpose in exceptional circumstances.
