Make-up Policy:

Late academic work submission procedures are as follows:

Academic assignments and projects are due by the scheduled/published dates.

In general, there is a 10 percent penalty for each business day that an assignment or project is late. Assignments may be submitted no more than one week late without prior approval from your instructor.

No late work will be accepted after the 90 percent date of the term without an incomplete grade approval from your instructor.

Certain course activities may not be eligible for late submission after the conclusion of the week, module, or unit. These include, but are not limited to, discussion boards, quizzes, and exams.

We know that extenuating circumstances can sometime interfere with timely submission of your work. Be sure to tell your instructor right away if you are going to be late with a submission.

Extenuating circumstances include, but are not limited to, personal/family member hospitalization, family member death, a severe weather event, a natural disaster, and an active military situation that prevents timely submission of work. Computer-related issues, internet connectivity, and account blocks are generally not considered extenuating circumstances.

You may request an extension or alternative arrangement, preferably prior to the due date, but your request does not automatically result in a waiver of the due date or of the penalties for late submissions. Your instructor may also require you to provide documentation of the reason. If your instructor determines that an extension is warranted, they will provide you with the expectations for your submission.
