Canvas@Illinois, How do I override a student's final grade in the Gradebook?
Final Grade Override enables you to enter a final grade different from the grade automatically calculated in the Gradebook. You can enter a letter grade or a percentage. A letter grade results in the lower bound of the grading scheme. A percentage is retained as the override score.
- In Course Navigation, click the Grades link.
- Open Gradebook Settings by clicking the gear icon.
- In Gradebook Settings, open the Advanced tab [1] and then click the Allow final grade override checkbox [2]. Click the Apply Settings button [3].
-
The override column displays at the far right of the Gradebook. Locate the student whose grade you want to override and enter a percentage or a letter grade in the Override column.
To delete an overridden grade, click the grade cell and click the Delete key.
Show or Hide Total and Override Columns
To show or hide the total and override columns, click the Settings icon [1] and click the View Options tab [2].
When the Final Grade Override feature option is enabled, click the Hide Total and Override Columns checkbox [3]. Click the Apply Settings button [4].
Note: If the Final Grade Override feature option is disabled, the text in the Show section displays Hide Total Column [5].
