Grade Passback

Updated on

Grade Passback will begin with the summer 2024 A-2 (May - Aug) 202450-1 and 202450-FEW terms. Grade Passback will eliminate the need for faculty to visit the Campus Academic Sharepoint to submit final grades.  Final grades will be transferred directly from Brightspace.  Mid-term grades will still be entered through the Campus Academic Sharepoint site. This process only affects final grade submission.  

Make sure you do not go to the Campus Academics Sharepoint site to submit your final grades.

Follow these instructions to submit your final grades:

1) Find the Course Menu on the navigation bar and select Grades from the drop-down menu.

To the far right, there is a Final Adjusted Grade column.  


2) To submit final grades, click the chevron to the right of the Final Adjusted Grade column. 

3) Select Enter Grades from the drop-down menu.  

4) Complete the fields in the Final Adjusted Grade column for each student to enter their grades.  You may copy and paste from the Final Calculated Grade column.

5) To the right of the Final Adjusted Grade column is the Released column.  For each student, check the box in the Released column to release their final grades.  IMPORTANT: if this box is NOT checked, final grades will NOT transfer to Banner.

6) In the bottom left-hand corner of the page, click the blue Save and Close button when you're ready to submit your grades.

Additional Information:

  • The final calculated grade is no longer automatically visible to students.  You can create a new column in your gradebook to display this information to students. There is an additional job aid about this process at the following link: https://snhu.screenstepslive.com/a/1883626-adding-a-final-calculated-grade-item-to-your-gradebook 
  • If you make a mistake submitting your final grades, grade change forms will need to be completed for each student that was incorrectly entered.
  • Mid-term grades will still be entered through the Campus Academic Sharepoint site, this process only affects final grade submission.
  • If you have questions about your gradebook or help setting it up before the end of the term, please reach out to the Office of Instructional Support via e-mail: [email protected].
