How do I override a course grade?

Note: When manually entering a course grade, you must use the appropriate grade type for the Gradebook in which you are working. For example, if the course is graded on a simple letter grade scale, you will only be able to enter the letters A, B, C, D, or F. If the course is graded on a standard letter grade scale, you will also be able to add  +  (plus sign) or  -  (minus sign) to the letter grade. If the course is graded on a Pass/Not pass scale, you will only be able to enter the letters P or N.

Go to Gradebook.

Select the Gradebook tool from the Tool Menu of your site.

Click Course Grades.

Click Course Grades.

Enter override score.

Enter override score.

You will see a list of enrolled students and their calculated course grades. In the "Grade Override" column.

  1. Enter the new course grade(s) to replace the autocalculated grade(s)
  2. Click Save.

Note: Once you save the grade override, a log icon will appear next to each modified grade which displays the time, date, grade information, and name of the person who changed the grade manually.
