Grades Verification and Ratification

Overview

This document outlines the steps for verifying and ratifying grades in iSIMS.

• Important: Grades must be entered using the onscreen or Excel methods.

• Note: Migrated grades are automatically entered as ratified grades.

• We recommend against using the Grades Migration option, as it does not allow detailed grade entry.
