Grading for Undergraduate Courses
A final grade must be submitted for every student on your rosters, including for those who do not take the final exam or have stopped coming to class. The grade of 0 should be assigned for missing assignments or exams, and the overall resulting grade should be submitted. It’s complicated for our office to resolve a final grade when it has been left blank.
Note that if a student's final grade is an F or FQ, the last day of attendance no longer needs to be entered next to the grade.
The grading system at Saint Louis University follows a 0.0 to 4.0 grade point scale. Grades are assigned as specified here.
For specific clarifications on grading, consult with your academic division chair.
