Corrections Policy

Corrections will be an opportunity to bring up a grade by some points if a homework assignment didn't go as well as a student would have liked.  Remember that corrections are meant to help students learn from their mistakes, not as a shortcut for not taking their time on an assignment.

• Assignments*: Corrections may be completed only if the assignment was submitted on time. Corrected assignments may earn up to full points.

*Late assignments are not eligible for corrections.
