Please note that it is the student&#8217;s responsibility to keep the instructor informed of reasons for late submission of coursework. It is also the student&#8217;s responsibility to obtain, complete, and submit the necessary \u201cRequest for Incomplete\u201d form (available on the portal) to the instructor no later than the last day of class. Extensions of time to complete coursework are typically granted only when unusual, extenuating circumstances exist.<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"margin-left: 54px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"margin-left: 192px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 36px 48px 48px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 0px 24px 0px 12px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\" data-resource-id=\"864788\" data-resource-type=\"wiki_page.body\">\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><u style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">G.
