In order to submit Final Grades from your Canvas Course to the Registrar's Office at the University of Utah, you must first apply a Grading Scheme. The University of Utah provides a default grading scheme that can be used; however, you are welcome to create your own Grading Scheme for your Canvas Course if you so choose.
Apply a Grading Scheme
1) Access the Course Settings
Click the Settings link at the bottom of the left Course Navigation Menu within your Canvas Course to access the Course Settings page in Canvas.
2) Find and Select the Course Grading Scheme
From the Course Settings page, scroll down until you see the "Grading Scheme:" option and check the box to adjacent to "Enable course grading scheme".
Note: The University of Utah's Grading Scheme is named "Default Canvas Grading Scheme". The parameters are shown below.
If you would like to use the Default Grading Scheme, continue to step 3.
To create and use a Custom Grading Scheme, continue follow steps a-c.

Click the "+ New Grading Scheme" button.
