Grade Release Question
Since grades are being released on April 29th, would that be at 12:00am tonight or 8:00am in the morning tomorrow? Sorry for another grade release thread lol.

Does it matter?

All grades don't get released at the same time. People can just start posting grades as of April 29th. Calm down and just wait. I don't know why everyone is in such a hurry to see their grades.

Some grades may come out EXACTLY at 12:00 AM. This is because anything that's already been graded and approved by the registrar is already sitting in the system.

I don't know why the hell we aren't allowed to see the grades that have already been completed... a lot of profs seem to think we should already see them, which to me implies that once upon a time, grades would come out as soon as they were available.

Anyone know why the hell it was changed?

Probably cuz some n00b some time thought it was unfair that some people got their grades before others.

They changed the system two years ago...you used to be able to see your grades as they came available. I am not a fan of this new system...

i wish all my grades were up....

grades are released early this year I have found. I think it is because someone rather press the "send out these grades" button late at night rather than 8 in the morning. Just a theory more than likely wrong.
