Subsection 6.2 Late Submissions and Missed Assignments

You will have a total of 4 slip days in increments of 1 day units (that is, 1 minute to 24 hours late = 1 slip day, etc.) to use throughout the semester to extend your homework deadline. However, you may use only one slip day on any particular assignment. Other than that, you may divide your slip days across the assignments in any way you wish, subject to the 4 slip days total and the maximum 1 slip day per assignment. Slip days are to account for unexpected life circumstances and emergencies. Use your slip days wisely. If you use all your slip days and are unable turn in your assignment on time for any reason then you will receive a 0 for that assignment.
In addition, at the end of the semester, the score of two assignments (quiz and homework) will be dropped from the final grade calculation. These drops serve as a safety net in case you miss an assignment because of illness or other obligations that may come up. The two dropped assignments could be both quizzes, both homeworks, or one quiz and homework. If you have not missed any assignments during the semester, then two assignments of the lowest score will be dropped. These drops will be applied automatically, you do not need to reach out to the teaching team to get these drops.
There are no make-up opportunities for the assignments and/or exam.
