COURSE REGISTRATION & ASSIGNMENT POLICIES
 
Please note that with effect for courses commencing from Jan 2012 (AY2011 Term 3) onwards:
  1. A student will only be registered for the course after he has submitted both his course registration form and course fees.
  2. The 1- and 3- month deadline for Full Time and Part Time Students respectively will still apply.  After the first deadline, students will be granted a further 3 months deadline extension automatically.  The specific overdue assignment, however, will incur a penalty of a 1/3 grade deduction.  For example, an overdue essay submitted by the end of the 6th month, will be downgraded from B+ to B.  At the end of this deadline extension, no further extensions will be allowed.  The status of the incomplete course will be converted from Credit to Audit.  This conversion will not affect the student’s GPA.
