The assessment must be graded.

Is the student missing the Review button when they click on the assessment? That means the "Allow Post Grading Review" setting has not been enabled. Click here for more information.
In the Gradebook
Students can view comments from the gradebook instead of opening their assessment.
After opening their assessments view of the gradebook, they will click on a class to expand the assessment details for that class. The last column in this table shows the comments. Clicking on a comment will open the full comment for viewing.
💡 Tip: Comments left on any points-based or standards-based assessment can be viewed from the Gradebook or the actual assessment.
