Late coursework:

If you have mitigating circumstances (either for lateness or for any other issue), you should fill at the mitigating circumstances form and hand it in to the student support office. The instructors and demonstrators do not grant extensions or resits for coursework directly: You need to go through the mitigating circumstances committee. (Feel free to come talk to us about problems you are having as early as possible. We will help you navigate the system. But we will adhere to the system.) If you do not have mitigating circumstances, then the policy is that you will receive 0 marks for work handed in late, regardless of the reason.

• books are often available second hand (check the internet e.g.)
