Important Note: Once the Approval Status has been set to Ready for Review and the roster has been saved, you can no longer change the grades. If you need to change a grade at this point, you should ask the person who is authorized to approve grades to set the status back to Not Reviewed so that you can change the grade, or ask the person with approval authority to change the grade. After the grades have been approved, they are Posted by either the Registrar s office or the Office of Graduate Studies. Once they have been posted they can no longer be changed on line. At that point, a Change of Grade form must be submitted to the Registrar s Office, for undergraduate grades, or to Graduate Studies for graduate grades. When the grades have been posted, students can see them on line. 10
