In general, extensions will NOT be approved unless there are very exceptional circumstances affecting your ability to submit by the deadlines stated above. Examples of exceptional circumstances include major illness or incapacity lasting two weeks or longer in the four weeks before the due date.
If you would like to apply for an extension due to exceptional circumstances, contact EAIT Employability - employability@eait.uq.edu.au.

Failure to submit on time for all other reasons will mean you are unable to graduate this semester.
Please ensure your expected graduation semester in Si-net is accurate to avoid missing critical communication regarding EPP.
