GRANTING OF EXTENSIONS From time to time, instructors may grant a student an extension for an assignment. This means that the instructor will accept the assignment at a later date than the posted deadline. Extension, if granted, would be for legitimate reasons only, such as personal or family illness, death in the family, and unavoidable extended absences. Extensions must be negotiated before the deadline date, with the instructor, and are not automatically granted. Similarly, when an exam or test is missed, for legitimate reasons, an instructor may permit a student to take a comparable test at another date. The instructor must be informed that the exam/test will be missed or else the assumption will be the student chose to fail that segment of the course. In cases of extension or missed exams/tests, a doctor’s certificate may be required.
