Extra Credit and Resubmission of Graded Assignments

For courses beginning November 1, 2024 or later:

Extra credit is not permitted in CalSouthern courses.

Once an assignment is graded and the grade is posted in the current class, learners may not resubmit an updated version for the objective of improving the assignment grade.

NOTE: This policy does not apply to the UNI1000 course.

For courses that begin October 1, 2024 or prior:

In order to maximize learning, one assignment in Weeks 1-7 of an eight-week course may be revised and resubmitted once for regrading. This policy does not apply to the Comprehensive Examination or Doctoral Project courses, nor does it apply to discussion posts, assignments due in the last week of the course, objective quizzes/tests/exams, or assignments flagged for plagiarism, which are not eligible for resubmission/regrading. Exceptions to this policy may only be made with approval of program leadership.

The following applies to a resubmitted assignment:

The assignment must qualify for regrading.
1. School of Nursing
  1. The assignment grade must be less than or equal to a C-.
  2. The initial assignment must be submitted by the assignment deadline. Late assignments are not eligible for regrading.
2. All other Schools
  1. Late submissions are eligible for regrading, but the late penalty policy will apply to the initial assignment as well as the resubmission.
Resubmission must occur within 3 calendar days of the grade posting to the gradebook. Resubmissions after that period will not be graded.
Resubmission must clearly address the mentor feedback provided in the initial assignment.
Only criteria that did not earn full points will be regraded.
