<p>Does anyone know when final grades will be posted? Are they all uploaded at the same time?</p>

<p>Final grades are posted on a per-professor basis – whenever that particular professor has them ready and submits them is when they get posted. Personally, three of my final grades are already up; I’m waiting on two more professors to post their final grades.</p>

<p>My son already has 3 of his grades posted. I’m impressed!!</p>

<p>Hornist is correct in that professors post grades individually. Should an instructor forget to post a grade by the deadline, which is traditionally midnight the Tuesday after finals end, the student gets a grade of NC, aka no credit, until the instructor files for a grade change.</p>

<p>Are the grades updated in real time (as entered by professor) or do they go through some kind of batch process and are updated later in the day?</p>

<p>Here’s a GPA calculator.

<p>What does “N” mean for a grade?</p>

9

<p>N means no grade reported. The prof hasn’t gotten the grade in.</p>

<p>Sometimes a lab will not have a separate grade (e.g., Chemistry has a separate ‘class’ for its lab, but does not give a separate grade for that lab). It will have an NG listed. An N would not normally be listed for a ‘regular’ class, tho, and should be questioned, if so, as it is supposedly treated as an F until rectified.</p>

<p>This is a P/F class and the Professor is out of town… I expect the N is being used as a placeholder until he returns.</p>
