* For students in the Southern Hemisphere, please refer to assessment events by the month of the deadline for submission.

Unit completed by: This is the date by which you need to have your unit completed in order to be invited to a given assessment event. Remember, completion is defined as submitting all assignments to your tutor, and having received all tutor feedback reports.

Invitation to event by: If eligible for the given event, this is the latest date by which you would receive your invitation to submit for assessment.

Deadline for submission: This is the last day on which you will be able to submit your work for assessment. Please note that any work submitted outside the deadline for submission dates cannot be accepted.

Results sent by: You should expect to receive the assessment results from a given event by no later than this date.

If you've been invited for assessment, but you have extenuating circumstances which mean that you will be unable to submit your work for assessment, you could apply to defer assessment to the following assessment event. See the Student Handbook for details on deferring assessment and how to apply.

If you fail to submit work for assessment when invited to do so, and have not been granted deferral of assessment, you will receive a fail for the unit and a mark of zero (0). You will then be offered a re-submission opportunity at the next assessment event. Full details on re-submissions can be found in the Academic Regulations.
