Slightly late submission

Hi there!
I think there may be some Salford reps on here that could give you a more confident answer, but unfortunately I think you might have to take a reduction in marks for being late, but I'm not too certain as different Universities have different rules regarding late submission.
For example, on my course at LJMU, we get 5 points docked for each DAY that work is submitted late, but I think any minute late on submission day classes as the first day being late, so 5 marks would be docked even if something were submitted 5 minutes late. If it is the same at your uni, I would guess that you would get around 5 points taken roughly. Some Universities are a lot stricter though so hopefully yours isn't one of those!
However, I would get in touch with either your head of course/module or the person marking your work, as they might be able to be a bit more flexible with the mark deduction as you were less than 10 minutes late submitting, especially if you were granted an extension - I would get in touch sooner rather than later though.
Good luck!

Thank you for the reply. I’ve already mailed the student advice team of my uni but yet to hear anything from them. I’m dreading that i might just be capped at 50 pass mark😩

Hiya!
Hopefully you'll hear back from someone first thing Monday morning. Everyone’s already shared some really helpful advice, and as mentioned, each university can vary slightly in how strict they are with deadlines
It might also be worth reaching out to your tutor if you haven’t already, just for clarification.
Try not to stress too much, we all make small mistakes sometimes, and this can be a valuable learning curve. Going forward, double-checking deadlines and giving yourself a bit of a buffer can really help avoid last-minute panic.

Hi, I’ve already emailed my tutor but he still hasn’t replied to my email nor has the student advice team. I hope I at least get some reply by the end of today🤕
Thank you for your response tho.

Hi everyone, I’m feeling quite anxious and could really use some advice. I had a PMC approved for one of my assignments, which gave me an extended deadline until Friday at 4:00pm.
I submitted on that new deadline day, but I was 8 minutes late (uploaded at 4:08pm). Now I’m really worried will this delay mean my mark gets capped, even though the extension was approved?
Has anyone had experience with being slightly late on a PMC deadline? Not sure how flexible they are with this kind of thing. For reference I’m studying in university of Salford.
