Final Grading via Samford Portal

Samford faculty must enter and report their final grades via the web using access through the Samford University Portal (aka Self-Service Banner).

Grade changes may be made through the Samford University Portal until grades are rolled. Please note, however, that grades will be rolled several times throughout the time that the grading window is open, and again after it is closed. Grades will not display in self-service or in DegreeWorks until they are rolled.

If the grade you want to change has already been rolled, please send an email from your Samford account to the Office of the Registrar . Any grade changes after 4 p.m. of the deadline will require completion of the official Change of Grade form.

Instructions for using Banner via the Samford University Portal follow below, under the "Grades" table.

Scheduling

In preparation for the upcoming credit hour shift effective in fall of 2026, Academic Affairs identified the need to revise Samford’s current academic scheduling “grid.” At the Provost’s request, the University Registrar convened a committee of campus partners, including faculty, staff, and student representatives. The committee was charged with developing a grid to best meet the needs of the entire campus community.
