Failing to complete the course within eight months of registration will automatically result in a grade of DNC. Should additional time be required, you may request in writing to the Coordinator of Distance Education for Faculty of Science at TRU for a one time only three month extension. This must be done in the 8 month course timeframe. Once a grade of DNC is issued no consideration will be given. See fees section.
If you receive a failing grade, you may immediately request in writing for an optional "one time only" re-write within a three month period with permission of instructor. A maximum of either one rewrite or extension will take place. See fees section.
