Final grading is completed using myBlueRidge at the end of the class. Instructors should complete the Web Attendance tracking before posting grades. Use the following steps to post grades:

  1. Log into myBlueRidge to post grades.

  2. Select the Faculty button. A listing of current courses will populate.

  3. Select the course; the roster will populate.

  4. Select the Grading tab, and then select the Final Grade option.

  5. Select the grade by using the drop-down arrow to the right of each student's name. Acceptable grades are:

    1. A, B, C, D, F, or I.

    2. W and Y (Audit) will already be populated in the grading screen.

      1. A student who audits a course pays the normal tuition and fees; however, is not required to take tests/examinations, nor do they receive grades, credit, or financial aid. Students auditing a course must meet any course prerequisite and attendance standards. Students who desire to audit a course must inform the instructor at the first class session, complete a Request for Audit form, and submit it to the Registrar's Office for processing within 15 days of the start of the course. Audits appear on the grade report as "Y."

  6. The LDA should be already populated if the Web Attendance tracking was completed. If it is not populated, enter the LDA.

    1. If the student receives a grade of I (Incomplete), enter the expiration date, which is one year from the date grades are due.

      1. A grade of I (Incomplete) indicates the student's failure to complete certain course requirements, usually due to some extenuating circumstances. "I" (Incomplete) grades for students have an Expiration Date of one year from the end of the current semester. All Incomplete grades must be removed before the Expiration Date or the Incomplete automatically becomes a failing grade (F).

    2. If the student receives a grade of W or F, the LDA must be entered if it is not automatically populated; if all withdrawals were properly made, the date will be populated.

  7. When all grades are entered, log out of the system; there is no need to Save or Submit.

  8. When grades are submitted, they are automatically verified in Colleague. Students will be able to view their grades immediately through myBlueRidge.
