Illness

If you are unable to attend for a presentation/progress review meeting or cannot submit a report because of illness or other grave cause, you should notify your supervisor immediately. If your supervisor recommends it, you should complete a coursework allowance form. This form has sections for both you and your Tutor to complete before it is returned to the Teaching Office for consideration by the Director of Undergraduate Education.

In the case of a missed presentation/meeting, every effort will be made to reschedule it. In the case of a report, you may be required to submit to the Teaching Office whatever notes, drafts, etc. you have available, so that as fair an allowance of marks as possible can be made.

Penalties

The time staff have for marking project reports can be short, so failure to meet submission deadlines for no good reason is treated seriously.

Penalties will be applied for each day that a report is late. The final report will not be accepted if more than five days late.

Penalties will be applied for infringement of the rules concerning report length.
