During the unofficial grade period (after the last day of exams and up to the day before the date grades and standings become official), no academic standings or term totals will show in Quest under "unofficial transcript." In order to see standings and term totals for past terms, go to how do I view my term grades? in Quest.

See About transcripts for more information. Note: Averages do not appear on the official transcript.
