Publication of grades and final awards on MyCampus
Publication of grades and final awards on MyCampus
Heads of School are responsible for ensuring that grades and final awards for their School are published in MyCampus. Results for each examination diet must be published by the relevant Results Deadline listed in our annual schedule of dates and deadlines.
Results are published on MyCampus using Grade Roster. There are two methods of result publication in Grade Roster:
- Users can submit, check and publish their results manually, or
- Upload a spreadsheet of results.
All examination results must be thoroughly checked to ensure that they are accurate before they are published. Care should be taken when entering data into Grade Roster to minimise the risk of publishing incorrect results.
When using the upload method to publish results we recommend that Schools download relevant Grade Roster spreadsheets from MyCampus. Extra precautions must be taken when uploading speadsheets, especially if Schools choose to load results held on locally created spreadsheets where formulas have been used to calculate aggregated grades or data has been manipulated, for example, by sorting, as errors in the spreadsheet can result in large numbers of incorrect results being published.
The Head of School must ensure that staff publishing results complete Grade Roster and Final Award (Degree Upload) training on Moodle. Schools should ensure that they have a large enough pool of trained staff to allow them to meet Results Deadlines and provide cover in the event of staff absence. Please contact MyCampus Support Development and Infrastructure to request Grade Roster and Final Awards (Degree Upload) access.
Exam grade Add or Remove form
If you're unable to enter a grade using the standard method—for example, in the case of a partial post, please fill in the ADD / REMOVE FORM form. Once all sections of the form are complete, email to the Exams Team. We will publish these results on your behalf.
Capping of Resit Results
In accordance with the No Detriment Policy, the GPA of reassessment results designated as 1st diet will be uncapped.
The GPA of reassessment results designated as 2nd diet will be capped as follows:
Undergraduate Reassessment Results
In accordance with the Code of Assessment undergraduate reassessment results are capped at Grade Point 9, rather than Grade D3.
Schools should publish the actual grades achieved by students but the GPA will be automatically capped at 9 by MyCampus.
A flag in the curriculum screen will indicate where the result has been capped. Students will see their grade on MyCampus but the GPA will be capped at 9 and the result will be flagged.
Exceptions
For the degrees of MBChB and BVMS undergraduate reassessment will continue to be capped at Grade D, rather than by grade point.
Results should be capped by the School/College prior to publication and capped grades should be published on MyCampus.
Postgraduate Taught Reassessment Results
In accordance with the Code of Assessment postgraduate taught reassessment results are capped at Grade Point 12, rather than Grade C3.
Schools should publish the actual grades achieved by students but the GPA will be automatically capped at 12 by MyCampus.
A flag in the curriculum screen will indicate where the result has been capped. Students will see their grade on MyCampus but the GPA will be capped at 12 and the result will be flagged.
For students in the School of Engineering reassessment results are capped at Grade Point 9.
For more information about the Code of Assessment and the capping of resit results visit the Academic Policy & Governanace website.
Changes to Published Results
Changes to Published Results
Once results are published on Grade Roster, they should only be changed under the following circumstances:
- An incorrect grade was published.
- A temporary administrative grade needs to be replaced e.g.
- EC – Extenuating Circumstances
- CW – Credit Withheld
- DFR – Deferred Result
Process for Changing Published Results
1. Upgrades or Replacements of Temporary Grades
- The School must inform the student that their original result is under review.
- Complete the Exam Result Change form. Print and sign the form and e-mail a scanned copy to the Registry Exams Team.
- We will update the published grade and confirm with the School.
- The School should then confirm the change to the student.
2. Downgrades
- The School must inform the student that their original result is under review.
- Consider whether the published result might stand. If it is decided that a result must be downgraded please complete the . Print and sign the form and e-mail a scanned copy to the Registry Exams Team. Include a brief report explaining the cause of the error and actions taken to prevent reoccurrence.
- Registry will seek approval for the downgrade from the Clerk of Senate.
- If approved, Registry will update the grade and notify the student of the outcome.
- The School is advised to follow up with the student, offering an explanation and apology for the error.
Best Practice Reminders
- Always communicate clearly with students before and after changes.
- Use template messages where available to ensure consistency.
- Maintain records of communications and forms submitted.
- For downgrades, approval from the Clerk of Senate is mandatory.
Changes to Final Year Qualification Results
Changes to Final Year Qualification Results
The process to change a published final year qualification result is the same as a change to exam results. It is important that changes to final year qualification results are promptly actioned, as they usually affect students who are graduating.
Please use the Result Removal form on the UofG Helpdesk. We'll remove the result and notify you so you can enter the correct one. As of February 2021, it is no longer necessary to notify the Clerk of Senate of an amendment to an overall result.
This process also applies if students have received an exit award and are returning to complete the original programme.
