Gradescope Scheduled Maintenance

There will be a 6-hour maintenance on February 7, 2026 from 10:00 AM CST until 4:00 PM. 

During this time, users may experience interruptions when loading assignments and making submissions to assignments through LTI 1.3 integrations only, as well as when submitting files for Gradescope’s Code Similarity Reports and exporting submissions. However, all other components of Gradescope will be operational, including both making submissions and accessing assignments via the website directly, as well as all functionality on the Gradescope Mobile App.

We regret any

Linux software mirrors will be down for maintenance during this period.

Active sessions will continue to run. There is a small chance that new sessions may not be able to launch during the maintenance window. We recommend logging into IDAS and starting your session before the maintenance window.

ITS Enterprise Infrastructure will be conducting networking updates for the Research Systems located in the ITF Data Center. These updates will result in the following Large Scale Storage systems having multiple network disruptions over the course of the maintenance window. 

Research Services recommends  saving and closing all files stored on LSS before the maintenance occurs to prevent data loss or corruption.
