By default, students with No Submission to an assessment will have a blank, or null, score. The assessment will not count towards their final grade until a score has been entered for them. The same score can be assigned, such as 0, to all students who did not submit an assessment.
Warning: Once a score has been saved for a student in Tests & Quizzes, the score cannot be removed from that student's course grade. The score would have to be excused from the total course grade in Gradebook.
