Only under exceptional circumstances will the School's Administrative staff accept assignments. Extensions of time to submit material for assessment can only be granted in exceptional circumstances. Written notice is given at the beginning of lectures for each subject of the requirements for the subject and this information includes the dates for the submission of work for assessment. All instances where illness will prevent you from meeting the due dates for assessment will need to be substantiated with a medical certificate from a doctor. If an extension is not granted then penalties apply to late submission of work, though each case is looked at individually.
Penalties vary from subject to subject.
Consult your subject outline for further information. However, if it is not stated in the outlines, the penalty is one mark per weekday the assignment is late. Plagiarism Plagiarism is a serious offence. Adherence to this document is obligatory. While the School normally grants supplementary exams when the student does not sit the standard exam for an acceptable reason, each student is treated as an individual case and there is no guarantee a supplementary exam will be granted.
