*Note “Rolled” is indicated with a “Y” when the grades are posted on a student’s record. While the flag is “N” you may change the grades online. After we roll, you have to use the grade change process. We roll grades between 6:00 pm and midnight each night. 

Please note

• Send grading comments to us by writing to facultygrading@georgetown.edu. For now, no pop up will appear so you must remember to send notes as appropriate.
• Be sure to send a note with name, ID number, and grade for any student who attended the class but does not appear on the roster.
• You are not required to submit all grades at once, but you should submit one for each student by the deadline. You may record “NR” for any student for whom you are not able to submit a grade but please provide an explanation. We may change some of these to “F” (FA) according to University policy. We are required to record “F” (FA) for undergraduates and “NR” for graduates for whom you do not submit a grade and for whom the dean does not approve an exception. If you do not submit a roster, “NR” will be reported for all students.
• Valid grades appear in a pull-down box in the grade column.

Unfortunately, this functionality is not available. If you need help uploading your grades into MyAccess, please contact the University Registrar.
