How can I get an extension on my coursework?

Use your one-week grace period or take advantage of a one-time re-registration opportunity (excludes Fast Track).

We adhere to the university session and grading timelines, so coursework needs to be completed in the session in which you are registered.

For every session (excluding Fast Track sessions), there is a one-week grace period at the end of the session. You do not need to do anything to use this extra time. Just continue to work.

Tip: The online learning platform may say that your work is late. But you can ignore this. There is no penalty for using the extra time. Your evaluator will know that you are using the grace period based on the date of your submission.

Still need more time?
You can re-register for your online course* with our one-time re-registration option

Beyond the grace period, you may certainly choose to re-register for your online course* with our one-time re-registration option if you have not previously re-registered for your course(s). This option requires a reduced re-registration fee of $150.00 per course, and can be done right in your account! Flex Credit courses (not using a University Partner) are $75 per course. 

*Fast Track courses have limited re-registration options, please contact us for specific details.

*Group incentive free 1-credit courses are not eligible for re-registration.


Re-Registration Basics

  • $50 per credit ($150 for a 3-credit course)
  • For Flex Credit courses ($75 for a 3-credit equivalent course)
  • Students may only re-register in a course one time. 
  • Re-registration must be processed within ONE year from the original registration date.
  • Upon re-registration, you will be placed into the new session of your course and complete the course with any revisions and/or updates that may have occurred since original enrollment. If the required textbook has been updated or changed since your initial registration, you will need to secure the updated text on your own. Please refer to your updated course syllabus for the ISBN and text details. 
  • As you will be working in the current version of the course, you will need to be sure your work follows the syllabus for the session you are enrolled in. Please be sure you have saved any submitted coursework in another location as it will not transfer with your registration in the online platform.
