Penalties for Lateness


Late assignments will not be accepted except for justified medical reasons or other serious circumstances beyond the student's
control.

Procedures and Rules


Missed Term Work
Extensions for homework deadlines will be considered only for medical reasons or other serious circumstances beyond the student's
control. There will be no makeup tests or quizzes. With adequate documentaion, missed tests can be compensated for by increasing
the weight of the final exam. Special consideration for late assignments or missed tests must be submitted via e-mail or in person
within a week of the original scheduled date. Justifiable absences must be declared on ROSI. Undocumented absences will result in
zero credit.

Missed Final Exam


Students who cannot write a final examination due to illness or other serious causes must file anonline petition within 72 hours of
the missed examination. Original supporting documentation must also be submitted to the Office of the Registrar within 72 hours
of the missed exam. Late petitions will NOT be considered. If illness is cited as the reason for a deferred exam request, a U of T
Medical Certificate must show that you were examined and diagnosed at the time of illness and on the date of the exam, or by
the day after at the latest. Students must also record their absence on ROSI on the day of the missed exam or by the day after at
the latest. Upon approval of a deferred exam request, a non-refundable fee of $70 is required for each examination approved.

Academic Integrity
Honesty and fairness are fundamental to the University of Toronto’s mission. Plagiarism is a form of academic fraud and is treated
very seriously. The work that you submit must be your own and cannot contain anyone elses work or ideas without proper
attribution. You are expected to read the handout How not to plagiarize (http://www.writing.utoronto.ca/advice/using-sources/how-
not-to-plagiarize) and to be familiar with the Code of behaviour on academic matters, which is linked from the UTM calendar under
the link Codes and policies.

Final Exam Information
