Requesting Extensions
Policy
All requests for an extension of an assessment deadline must be submitted to the unit co-ordinator (or specified member of teaching staff) who needs to sign and date the assessment coversheet provided at the Caulfield Faculty of Arts office and at the PSI office at Clayton. Requests must be received BEFORE the due date of the assessment. Extensions will normally only be granted to students who can support their request with appropriate documentation. The undertaking of regular paid work does NOT in itself constitute adequate grounds for the granting of extensions, nor does the fact of having other assessment tasks due or end of semester exams.
Process
It is the duty of students to contact unit co-ordinators in adequate time for a response and to forward all supporting documentation. The student should have their coversheet signed and dated by the unit co-ordinator and then attach it to their submission. You DO NOT have an extension until the coversheet has been signed and dated by the unit co-ordinator.
