At the beginning of each semester you will asked to verify your class

grades into the eLion system. The class roster will only list currently
enrolled students. If there should be discrepancies on the roster, contact
your Center/School.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING GRADE POLICIES AND
PROCEDURES.




eLion has a 15-minute timeout feature. If there is no submission to
the system for 15 minutes, eLion will not accept a submit command
until you log back in. Therefore, be sure you have calculated the
grades and are ready to enter them once you open the grading
screen.
To avoid being timed out, it might help to input half of the grades,
submit, and go back to enter the other half.
The grades you submit are the final grades for the student. Once
you submit them, they cannot be changed through the grading
screen and the student has immediate access to their grades. It is
imperative that you are sure you have entered the correct grades
before you hit submit.
Once you have submitted, go back to the grading screen to make
sure the grades posted and you were not timed out. It is a good
idea to print a copy after you have submitted and gone back into the
grading screen.

The grade roster available on eLion is the official record of students
currently enrolled.
If there is a student that has attended class, but is not listed on the
roster contact your Center immediately.
Incomplete grades (I) may be assigned when a student is doing
satisfactory work, has completed the majority of their work, and the
reasons given are acceptable to the faculty member. Incomplete
work is counted as a failure (F) if the work is not made up by the
deadline the instructor has assigned, but in no event later than the
end of the following semester.
Students that have withdrawn from the class will not appear on the
roster. Therefore you will never enter a W grade.
Do not issue a W grade to any student. To receive a W the student
must properly withdraw from the course. When this is done a W
grade is automatically issued. This system relieves the instructor
of the responsibility of issuing a W, so please do not issue a W
grade to any student.
All students on the roster must receive a grade. Do not leave any
blank.
After grading is complete, click Submit to complete the process.
It is highly recommended that you access the grading section again to
confirm all grades are entered correctly and print a copy.

* The FA grade is issued to students who did not complete the course, did
not officially withdraw, and failed to participate in course activities through
the end of the enrollment period. The FA grade earns no credit and counts
in the same manner as an F in tabulating the student grade point average.
Issue a FA grade when a student drops out or quits attending within the
following periods:
Student disappears during the 2nd thru the 4th week in an 8-week term and
does not return to finish the class.
Student disappears during the 2nd thru the 9th week in a 15-week semester
and does not return to finish the class.
Student disappears during the 2nd thru the 5th Weekend Class meetings
and does not return to finish the class.
