Final grade rosters are automatically created for classes based on the End Date entered on the Meeting Patterns tab in Collaborative Class Scheduling (CCS). The End Date defaults to be the last day of the term session in which the class is scheduled, but can be adjusted if appropriate.
If your department offers classes that do not run the full length of the term session, it’s important the CCS scheduler adjust the End Date on the Meeting Patterns tab to be the actual last day of the class. By doing so, the grade roster is created on time, about a week prior to the last day of class. Once created, the grade roster is immediately available to the instructor and/or proxies in the Faculty Center for completion and submission.
