Submitting Show and Files assignments after the submission deadline

If you missed the assignment deadline, you can still submit your work up to 7 days after the deadline, however a late penalty will be applied once your submission is marked.

If you have an extension granted by student support or approved additional consideration, and you want to submit after your extended deadline, you must complete the Submission Portal Unlock Form. Once your submission is unlocked, you can submit up to 7 days after your extended deadline; but be aware your work will be subject to a late penalty.


If you've already submitted and you need to make changes, see this article on changing a Show and files submission.
