The full details of the revised policy can be found in the course portal under Academic Policies/Late Work Policy, but here is a summary of the key changes.

  • The revised policy states the purpose of Late Work Petitions and introduces a time period for their submission (3 weeks from the assignment due date).
  • The revised policy introduces a way for learners to make up missed discussions, with an approved Late Work Petition.

CHANGES TO GRADUATE LATE WORK POLICY

  • The revised Late Work Policy for graduate learners, who must maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA, has been changed to reduce the per diem reduction (now 5% per day) and extend the late work submission period by one day to 3 days.
