Coursework deadlines
It is essential for fairness that all students
hand in their coursework by the same deadline.
The deadlines for your coursework will be in course
handbooks and on relevant areas of WebCT or your
subject's website.
It is your responsibility to check your own deadlines.
There are penalties for late coursework.
Late Coursework
Late coursework submitted without an authorised
extension will be recorded as late and the following
penalties will apply: 5 percentage points will
be deducted for every working day it is late,
up to a maximum of 5 working days. After this
time a mark of zero will be recorded.
An initial mark of 70% will therefore be reduced
to 65, 60, 55, 50 and 45 over five working days,
and then to 0.
These penalties follow the University's Assessment
Regulations.
Late coursework will only be accepted without
penalty if you have provided a good reason and
have been granted an extension.
Return of Coursework
You should collect your marked coursework from
Undergraduate Reception (G.08). You may be asked
to produce your student card to confirm your Examination
Number.
You will be notified by email when coursework
is ready for collection.
To sum up:
3rd and 4th Years:
