Request Regrade in Gradescope - Staff Guide


This guide is for Gradescope in Ultra Course View. If you are still working in Minerva Original (modules 2021/22 and earlier), see Minerva Original: Gradescope Administration.


Gradescope has a range of administrative functions to improve assessment workflows.

Request Regrade

Gradescope has a feature that will allow students to request that their paper is regraded, once the marks have been released.

Careful consideration should be made as to how this feature fits with your assessment workflow. It is a useful way for students to indicate their submission was in the wrong AI group but could also generate unintended outcomes if used in scenarios with large cohorts. This feature can be set on a per assessment basis or at the course (module) level. The setting is on at the course level by default and configuring the option will only apply to newly created assignments. The request regrade features can be configured on each existing assignment individually.

To configure the setting at the assignment level, click on the assignment you’d like to configure, then Regrade Requests from the left hand menu. Click Regrade Request at the bottom right of the screen. You can choose to disable regrades completely by unticking the box, or set a time period in which students can request them.

To configure the setting at the course (module level) click on the course name in the left hand menu and select Course Settings,  untick Enable Regrade Requests.
