4. ASSESSMENT SUBMISSION
A.

Students who miss the submission deadline for any module assessment will be allowed to proceed to the next module and take the next module's assessment; however, they will forfeit the marks for the missed module assessment.
D.
Students who wish to submit an assessment after the deadline must pay a compulsory fine of 10,000 Naira before they will be allowed to submit. However, if the assessment for that module has already been graded and reviewed, no late submissions will be accepted, and payment will not be an option. Students in such situations are advised to focus on the next module and maintain timely submissions moving forward.
