How to change gradebook settings. Final grade and gradebook layout

Program directors can change gradebook settings based on the director's preference or accreditor recommendations.

VIAS has setting options within the section page for each section's gradebook. The user can choose to have the final score rounded by whole number, 1 decimal place, or 2 decimal places.

The default gradebook setting for final grades is whole number.

This grade setting will average the final grade based on the program director's choice.
