How can I request an extension?

Find out more about Extension Requests.

Extensions must be applied for before the due date.

No applications made after that date will be considered.


Extensions are granted upon the following criteria:

  1. Medical illness (requires a doctors certificate)

  2. Extreme hardship – “Extreme hardship” is not: computer breakdown, too much work, etc.            

  3. Compassionate grounds

  4. Faculty supervised project amendment

Each application is considered on a case–by–case basis. 

In the form, please make your case considering the above criteria. 

Also please propose a date for when your assignment would be completed — which is normally within 7 calendar days of the due date. 

Please note: No essay will be accepted beyond the final extension due date.
