Late Policy

For any homework assignment handed in late, your mark for that particular item will be reduced by a penalty P, defined as P = x/4, where x is the number of days late, for x > 0 and x < 4. For example, if the homework is due on Jan 1 23:55, and you turn in homework before Jan 2 23:55, you will receive a mark equivalent to 3/4 of your graded homework. No late homework submission will be entertained after the official homework solution is posted.

Regrade Policy

Any query about assignment grades must be submitted within 1 week of the time when the result is posted. Queries must be submitted in writing and is accompanied by a cover letter explaining the reason for regrade. Your entire assignment will be regraded and may therefore lead to a grade lower than the original assigned one. No regrading is allowed for final exam as per University regulation.
