For each assessment there is a rating. The rating can either be a pass / fail or a grade according to the Swiss 6-point grading scale. Specifications about the rating scheme of the specific courses are published in advance for every course in the detailed course directory.

The lecturers submit the grades and ratings of the assessments into an electronical system called TeLL (for the fall semester from mid-December on, for the spring semester from mid-May on) and you’ll get an automated email with your results after the control-scanning is done. Then, the grades are listed in the academic progress summary and later will be listed in the transcript of records which is available as PDF on online services/each semester.
