Grade Information
Grades are due from instructors five days after the last day of the term/last day of finals.
Instructors are only able to view originally submitted grades on their grade rosters, not grade changes. When a change of grade is processed, the student can view the updated grade as soon as it is processed, but the instructor will only be able to view the original entry. Instructors can view the most current grade for an individual student by looking at their Academic Transcript in TreeHouse or the student’s Ladder.

Viewing Past Terms and Submitting Missing Grades
Click here to open a PDF version of the below instructions that you can save to your desktop: Viewing Past Terms and Submitting Missing Grades
- Login to Treehouse.
- The Faculty Grade Assignment box will display your most recent classes with the current grade submission status.
(A pencil at the bottom indicates grades have not been entered. A pencil at an angle indicates grades have been submitted.) - To find a specific term, click Preferences from the Faculty Grade Assignment box.
- Select the term you want to view from the From Term box and click Apply.
- This will display your classes for that term and the grade status.
If you taught less than 10 classes in a term, you will see additional terms since the system defaults to display 10 rows at a time. - Any classes with a yellow triangle need to be reviewed as it indicates missing grades.
The only exception to this would be if a student applied for an ‘I’ grade (incomplete). That student would show as a missing grade even though they have received a grade of ‘I’ or have since had it changed. - Click on the course title to open the Final Grades screen. Select a grade from the drop-down menu and click Submit.
If it is not a grade for the current term, you will need to email [email protected] to alert them that the grade needs rolling.
Request to Change a Submitted Grade
Please use the below form to submit any changes to grades that have been rolled to a student’s record. This form is to request changes to grades entered within the last two terms. Any other grade changes or entries will need to be handled by following one of the procedures below:
- If it is before the grade submission deadline, you can change the grade through TreeHouse as grades have not yet been rolled.
- If you have not yet entered a grade for the student, and the grade in question is within the last academic year, please submit the grade through TreeHouse and email [email protected] after the grade is saved to inform the Registrar’s Office to roll the grade.
- If you are requesting a change to a grade that is more than two terms in the past or enter a grade for a term more than one year in the past, you will need to submit a petition to the Graduate Academic Standing Committee (CSGS & THEO) or the Academic Standing Committee (CLA) for approval. Please do not submit this form.
Incomplete Grades
CLA
An incomplete grade may be considered when extenuating circumstances prevent a student from completing course work by the end of the term. The student is expected to first meet with the faculty member of the class and determine, together, if it is realistic for the work to be completed within 6 weeks. Please review the incomplete policy in the catalog.
Incomplete requests must be made by faculty via Coursedog. Instructions on how to submit can be found by clicking here.
To change an I grade to a final grade, use the Faculty Request for Change of Grade.
