Late Assessment Policy

This ensures that the requirements for submission of assignments and other work
to be assessed are fair, transparent, equitable, and that penalties are consistently
applied.
1. All assessments which students are required to submit will have a due date
and time specified on the Unit Outline.
2. Accepting late submission of assignments or other work will be determined by
the unit coordinator or Head of School and will be specified on the Unit
Outline.
3. If late submission of assignments or other work is not accepted, students will
receive a penalty of 100% after the due date and time i.e. a zero mark for the
late assessment.
4. If late submission of assignments or other work is accepted, students will be
penalised by ten percent per working day for a late assessment submission (e.g.
a mark equivalent to 10% of the total allocated for the assessment will be
deducted from the marked value for every day that the assessment is late). This
means that an assignment worth 20 will have two marks deducted per working
day late. Hence if it was handed in three working days late and marked as
12/20, the student would receive 6/20. An assessment more than seven
working days overdue will not be marked. Work submitted after this time
(due date plus seven days) may result in a Fail Incomplete (F-IN) grade
being awarded forthe unit.
