GRADES

Final Grades
Students have a high rate of success with UW in the High School courses. Of more than 3,400 grades reported in 2008-09, the average grade was a 3.1, with 93% above 2.0.

Students access their course grade online through their MyUW account. Grades are not mailed to students. Final grades may not be posted until up to three weeks after the teacher has submitted them to UW Educational Outreach. In the meantime, the student will see an “X” after the course title in MyUW. This is merely a placeholder until the final grade is recorded. If a student did not set up their MyUW account, they may also access their grade by ordering transcripts.

Course Withdrawal and Final Grades
There is a specific time limit for withdrawing from a course — students should consult their teacher for more information. No refund is available for withdrawal. Failure to withdraw from a course by the deadline may result in a permanent UW grade of 0.0 recorded on a UW official transcript.
