Advising

Spring 2025 Grading Deadlines

Spring 2025 Senior Grades Due: Wednesday, June 11 by 8:30 A.M. (submitted in Workday). This deadline is very important as Senior Academic Review takes place Wednesday afternoon. Missing grades could impact a senior’s graduation and commencement status.

Spring 2025 Grades Due (First-Years Through Juniors): Wednesday, June 18 by 8:30 A.M. (submitted in Workday).

Tips and Reminders for Entering Final Grades in Workday:

  • Grades can be entered through the My Teaching App or by using the Assign Student Grades for Student Course Section task. A step-by-step tutorial is available to assist you.
  • Student-Opted S/Cr/NC Grades: You will submit the letter-grade equivalent and the system will convert the grade to S*, Cr*, or NC*. Courses offered on a mandatory S/Cr/NC basis (“scrunch-only”) will only show S, Cr, or NC as possible grades.
  • Low Grades (D+, D, D-, F, Cr, NC, Cr*, NC*) require a form submission in Workday using the Create Student Low Grade Form task (formerly known as the D/F Form). You can submit the form after you have submitted your grades in Workday.

Fall 2025 Waitlist Processing

Manual waitlist processing for Fall 2025 has begun and will continue until the last day of exams, Monday, June 9th, at 5:00 PM. Waitlist processing will be paused over the summer; we will resume processing requests at the end of New Student Week.

You can email your waitlist requests to waitlist@carleton.edu. For more information, please see our Waitlists webpage.
