Course Policies

Attendance Policy/Assignment Submissions:

Each student is expected to be active in the course each week. You are required to log into the course site at least three times a week. You may be removed from the course if at least one assignment has not been submitted by the Any One Assignment Due/NVRK date.

 

Grading Turnaround Time:

All completed assignments will be graded no later than seven  days from the submission date, and sooner when possible. There will be a delay in the grading and posting of grades for assignments submitted late, as the grading of current assignments takes priority over late submissions. 

 

Late Work Policy:

All assignments and Exams are due on the published due date. If you have a mitigated circumstance (documentation may be required) that keeps you from getting your work in, please contact your instructor before the due date. Your instructor has a strict policy on submitting work on time. You will not be allowed to make up missing work just because you forgot or you decided to go on vacation. When you know that you have an event coming up on a due date, prepare ahead of time. You will be allowed to submit work earlier. Contact your instructor if you have questions.
