About Override Grades

• Override grades are grades you assign manually, for example, if you type in the grade pill in the gradebook. An override label appears next to the grade alerting you to the fact that an override occurred.
  • Sometimes a grade change results in an override grade. An override grade takes precedence over all other grade entries, including rubrics and any attempts with a grade.
• Revert an Override Grade – You can clear an override grade by selecting the final grading pill for the grading item and deleting the manually entered grade. The grade will then revert to the attempt or rubric grade (even if they are ungraded, it will be null).

Setting Exemptions, Date and Time Exceptions, and Accommodations

• Grade Exemptions can be added with or without scores for a gradable item. Students will not be held to the expectations for that gradable item when an exemption is added. The gradable item will be ignored as a part of the overall grade.
• Exceptions apply to single assessments or gradable items for an individual student due to extenuating circumstances.
• An Accommodation applies to all due dates or time limits in your course for an individual student.
