Return to the General Usage FAQ Menu
Below is a quick summary of how to submit your midterm or final grades from your T-Square course worksite to Banner. For more thorough instructions, please see our Workshop Handout on Publishing Grades.
- Login to T-Square and navigate to the Gradebook tool in your course worksite
- Select the "Course Grades Options" tab within the Gradebook tool
- Select the appropriate "Grade Type" from the drop-down list:
- For Midterm Grades, select "Pass/Fail"
- For Final Grades select "Letter Grades"
- Select the "Change Grade Type" button, then adjust the Minimum Percentages (under the "Minimum % column") to define the minimum percentage out of 100% that a student must earn in your course to receive a particular grade
- Select the 'Save' button to save your changes
- Select the "Course Grades" tab at the top of the Gradebook tool
- Review the grades listed for your students, and override any that you wish to change.
- For Midtrem Grades, you can only enter ''S", "U", or "W"
- For Final Grades, you can only enter "A","B","C","D","F", "I", or "W"
- After making any changes, select the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the page
- Select the "Publish" tab at the top of the Gradebook tool
- Select the section(s) for which you want to submit grades to Banner, or select the checkbox in the grey bar to select all sections at once
- Select the appropriate option for the type of grade being submitted: "Mid-term" or "Final"
- If you wish, select the "Preview Grades" button next to any section to review your grades one last time before submitting them
- When you are ready, select the "Submit grades for selected CRNs" button
- T-Square will review your grades and the associated student records, and on the next page it will give you any warnings about irregularities in your grades or students. Review these warnings, and if necessary go back and make changes, then return to this step.
- If you see no warnings, or you can determine that any warnings displayed are not significant for your course, select the "Submit grades" button to actually send your grades to Banner.
- It may take a few moments for your grades to go through. Once this has occurred, you will be notified, and a log file will be created. Be sure to review this log file before leaving your gradebook! Just because T-Square says that your grades have been submitted, this does not mean that they were all accepted. Check through the log carefully to make certain that all grades were accepted.
- If you do find errors, you can correct them and then resubmit your course grades again. However, please be aware that resubmitting will only affect students whose grades were not previously accepted - for all other students, you will see a log message that reads "Received grade already posted to student enrollment. No update performed." If you wish to change an already accepted grade for a student, you must dos so via the Banner Web interface. Check with your local administrative support staff if you are not sure how to do this.
