In our ongoing efforts to improve the faculty user experience, we’re pleased to introduce the new Canvas to myUTSA Account Grade Transfer Tool. By leveraging the real-time update functionality released last November, this enhancement simplifies and streamlines the transfer of grades. Starting Monday, February 26, 2024, faculty can access the new “Grade Transfer” tool located in their course menu and submit grades on-demand when they’re ready. If you have any questions or encounter any issues, please review our frequently asked questions or contact Academic Innovation.

Yes, you may turn on and off your grading scheme at any time through your course settings.

After clicking submit, you will see a green success message appear along the top of the page stating, “There were # successful submissions.” You will also see that the checkboxes under the “Submitted” column are now checked.
Please review our self-help instructions that provide additional details or contact Academic Innovation for assistance.
Only individuals listed as the instructor of record for a course will have access to submit grades via the Grade Transfer tool. TAs and Designers will see the tool in their course navigation, but will not have access to view or submit grades.
Rather than submitting a traditional grade comment, we’ll be utilizing the “Last Attended Date” functionality. The Registrar’s Office will then use these dates to determine the appropriate grade comment.
When submitting ‘F’ grades via Canvas, faculty are asked to enter a “Last Attended Date” using the guidance above. The dates entered will be used by the Registrar’s Office to determine the appropriate grade comment. When validating grades in myUTSA Account, you may see an error stating “Grade Comment (01, 02 or 03) required for this grade.” If you correctly entered a “Last Attended Date,” you can ignore this error message.
