Save Time with the Grade Export and Upload Tools

This email is being sent to all instructors teaching multiple courses. Please disregard this message if you have submitted final grades.

This is a reminder that final grades for off-cycle courses that end on or before Dec. 11, and full semester-length courses need to be submitted no later than Tues. Dec 20 and in "Approved" status no later than 4:59 pm, Dec. 21. The ICON export or .csv upload features can save time with the final grade entry process. These features are highly recommended for faculty teaching courses with high enrollment or multiple sections of the same course.

Questions regarding the ICON export/upload process should be directed to its-helpdesk@uiowa.edu or call 319-384-HELP (4357).

Questions regarding formatting .csv/.txt files and uploading them into MAUI should be directed to reg-maui-support@uiowa.edu. 

Grade Upload Help Pages

Maui .csv or .txt upload

Benefits of uploading grades

• Use one .csv or .txt file when uploading grades for multiple sections (upload the file into each section. Uploading file into one section will not upload grades to all sections).
• Reduce the amount of time spent hand entering grades
• Ability to enter "status" and "date" information within the file for students earning AUU, F, N, U grades.
• Your T.A. may not have access to submit grades but can format the file for you.
• If your T.A. has access to "save" grades they may upload and save grades in MAUI for your review.
