Gradebook Setup Guide

Letter Grades and Grade Scale Settings

Because each program has different grade boundaries for their letter grades, letter grades must be set up for each individual course.

  1. Start with Course Administration

  2. Open the Course Outline and find the Course Grades.  This is where the percentage boundaries for letter grades are detailed:
