Final Second 5 week and 10 Week Summer Grade Submission Guidelines

Faculy submit Final grades via BannerWeb. If you have not used Banner Web, you may find these instructions helpful.

The window for entering final grades electronically will begin 9:00am, Monday, July 21, 2008 and end PROMPTLY at 8:30am, Monday, July 28, 2008.

As you post grades, please be sure that they are accurate. You should use BannerWeb to view grades entered for accuracy.  Grade changes may only be made under certain circumstances. Once grades are "rolled" by Banner so that the students have access to them, no grade may be lowered.

For students that have withdrawn or are auditing your class, the grade will already be recorded and cannot be changed. 

Except for students needing a provisional grade (Guilford's version of "Incomplete"), record a grade for every student in your class(es), including anyone that has stopped attending. NOTE: Provisional Grades may not be entered via BannerWeb. They must be submitted electronically by using the provisional grade request form. This form(not BannerWeb) is also used to submit the final grade once the student has completed their outstanding work.

To determine each student's academic status (e.g., good standing, probation, suspension, dismissal), the Registrar's Office will begin processing grades PROMPTLY at 8:30am July 28, 2008.

NOTE: Because transcripts are sealed and may not be changed for any reason after a student graduates, graduating seniors have only until 5pm on Monday, July 28, 2008 to appeal final grades and have erroneous grades corrected.

  • Contracted Honors
  • Departmental Honors

    • As noted in the Guilford College Academic Catalog, some departments offer an honors option consisting of extensive reading, independent study, and perhaps a research paper, for seniors with a minimum 3.50 grade point average in their major.  The honors study is usually evaluated in an oral examination.  Three members of the faculty and a visiting examiner conduct the examination and it is open to all interested persons.  Students successfully completing this program are awarded departmental honors at graduation.

      If your department has degree candidates that are to be awarded departmental honors, please complete the Department Honors form and submit to the Registrar's Office.  Your completed form should be submitted to the Registrar’s Office no later than the date final grades are due.
