Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I go to enter midterm grades?
Grades can be entered on the midterm grade roster on the Albert faculty portal. Upon logging into Albert, navigate to the “My Courses” section of the Faculty/Advisor tab. Clicking on the Grade Roster icon (looks like a check mark) will take you to the grade roster page. If the icon is grayed out please contact grading@nyu.edu for additional assistance.
How do I enter and submit my midterm grades?
When you open the grade roster, scroll down the page (past the instructions) to view your list of students. Input grades for students using the drop-down menu next to the student's name. Click the "Save Grade Roster" button; this will immediately allow students to view their midterm grades on Albert; but note that midterm grades do not appear on students' transcripts.
How do I change a midterm grade?
As midterm grades are not official, you can go back to the roster to make changes to the grades entered at any time before the deadline. Using the drop-down menu displaying grading options, select a new grade value (as needed) and click the "Save Grade Roster" button. Students should see the updated grade immediately. After the midterm grading deadline, midterm grades cannot be edited and any changes should be communicated directly to the student.
Will I receive an email confirming my midterm grades were submitted successfully?
As midterm grades are unofficial and do not post to a student’s transcript, you will not receive an email confirming submission of midterm grades.
How do I determine the midterm grade?
Midterm grades are determined by the instructor. For support in deciding which grade to assign we recommend speaking with your academic department.
A student is missing from the midterm grade roster; where can I find them?
By default the grade roster displays 30 students at a time. If there is a student missing from the grade roster, clicking the “Show All Rows” in the Go To Page drop-down menu will display your full list of students.
How can students view their midterm grades?
Students will be able to view their midterm grades by logging into the Albert student portal and navigating to the “Grades and Transcripts” tab on the left-side menu.
