About Late Penalties

If you submit an assessment task after the due date and you do not have an approved extension or have not been granted a special consideration, a 5% late penalty will be applied to your marks for each calendar day that is late, for up to a maximum of seven days.
After seven days, the assessment task will receive a mark of zero, and you may not be provided with individual, written or timely feedback.
The late penalty will be calculated on the available marks for the assessment task. This penalty will then be subtracted from the achieved mark for the assessment task.
Request support from SSA Swinburne Advocacy Service (SAS) if you have any questions relating to this.
