Submission of assessment items
Extensions & Late submissions
The new University of Canberra Assessment Policy limits late submissions where there is not a Reasonable Adjustment Plan or assignment extension approval accompanied by medical documentation to a maximum of three days. The late penalty is 10% per day or part thereof. Students will be allocated a mark of zero if submitting more than three calendar days late (without approved extension or reasonable adjustment) with no feedback provided.
Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at UC. This includes submitting authentic and original work for assessments and properly acknowledging any sources used.
Academic integrity involves the ethical, honest and responsible use, creation and sharing of information. It is critical to the quality of higher education. Our academic integrity values are honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility and courage.
UC students have to complete the Academic Integrity Module annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).
UC uses various strategies and systems, including detection software, to identify potential breaches of academic integrity. Suspected breaches may be investigated, and action can be taken when misconduct is found to have occurred.
Information is provided in the Academic Integrity Policy, Academic Integrity Procedure, and University of Canberra (Student Conduct) Rules 2023. For further advice, visit Study Skills.
