ENTITIES AFFECTED: Faculty Students ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITY: Office of the Provost/Vice President for Academic Affairs Office of Online Education APPROVED BY: The Office of Online Education The Kentucky State University Board of Regents EFFECTIVE DATE: 7/1/2024

PURPOSE:

The KYSU Online Late Work Policy establishes requirements and procedures for assignment deadlines and late work. It standardizes elements of the grace period and the penalties for late work in online courses.

POLICY STATEMENT:

All assignments must be completed by their deadlines as specified in the course schedule. Assignment deadlines typically coincide with the end of each module. Modules usually begin on a Monday and end on the following Sunday. Therefore, assignment deadlines generally are 11:59 PM on Sunday (except Module 8, which typically ends on a Friday).

Students who do not meet the deadline may submit their work late without requesting approval from the course instructor. Late work will be penalized with a standard grade reduction on the assignment. The standard penalty is a reduction of one (1) letter grade or ten percent (10%) of the assignment's possible points per week after the deadline.

ALL POLICIES ARE SUBJECT TO AMMENDMENT
