Your final grade is incorrect
The grade in the Brightspace and in your transcript may differ if your instructor has enabled Drop ungraded items.
- This setting ignores ungraded items when displaying your final grade in Brightspace
- This may cause your grade to appear higher in Brightspace than your transcript if you have incomplete assignments.
Contact your instructor if you have any questions or concerns regarding your final grade.

Your grades are only available in the Brightspace once your instructor has published them.
