If you know in advance that you are not going to meet a submission deadline, the Late Submission of Coursework Policy applies. The application should be made prior to the due date, and granting an extension is at the discretion of the Extension Committee. This does not fall under the Extenuating circumstances policy.
The Extension Committee will not normally accept requests:
• without accompanying documentation;
• based on work commitments outside UCD;
• based on the cumulation of deadlines for UCD academic work.
All documentation and requests will be dealt with in strictest confidence. Examples include: medical certificate; letter from a Student Adviser; RIP notification.
Please DO NOT submit multiple extension requests, unless they are for different modules, as this will slow down the response time. Students will usually receive a response within 48-72 hours during working hours (Monday to Friday 08:00-16:00 except Bank Holidays).
