Bulk exemptions in Grades allows you to exempt a specific user from selected or all grade items. Exemptions display the grade item as "Exempt" for Instructors, Teacher's Assistants, and Students.

To bulk exempt in Grades:

1. Navigate to Grades.
2. Click the Enter Grades tab, if you did not default to that tab.
3. Click the down arrow Action menu next to the student's name you wish to exempt.
4. Click Bulk edit exemptions from the menu.
5. Click the Select / Unselect all links or check the boxes next to the items you wish to exempt for the student.
6. Click the Save and Close button.

You will now see an Exempt message displayed for the selected grade items.

Note: If your Grade Items are associated with Discussions, Assignments, or Quizzes, the Exempt message will also display when evaluating those associated assessments.
