I have made note of the deadline for each assignment.  I understand that any of it may be completed and submitted before the indicated deadline (with the exception of the Final Exam).  Only in extenuations circumstances may an assignment be accepted late.  Therefore, it is not in my best interest to wait until the last minute to complete assignments.

I understand that I will have multiple graded assignments due each week in ALEKS.  I will find the Due Dates for specific assignments in the Course Calendar posted in the Canvas Syllabus page and in the Start Here Module.  I know that every assignment must be completed by 10:00 pm Central Time on the date it is due.  I further understand that failure to complete any assignment by the deadline will result in a grade of zero for the assignment.

I understand that work for all tests and the final exam must be submitted on time and correctly or this will result in a grade of zero on the test or final exam.
