Grant Extensions or Accommodations

Give students longer to complete an assignment as an education accommodation or a one-time extension for a student.

Extend due dates for all students or grant extensions to individual students. You can extend the due dates of multiple activities at the same time. Either set a new date explicitly, or move the dates forward from their original due dates by a number of days.

To open the gradebook, click > Gradebook.
Select individual students or click Name to select all students.
At the bottom of the page, click Actions > Extend Due Dates.
Confirm that the correct students are selected and click Assignments.
Select individual activities or click Select All to select all activities.
Click Due Dates.
Extending or removing due dates after students have submitted late work will remove any late penalty deductions that were previously applied. This change might take up to 5 minutes to be shown in the gradebook.
Adjust the dates for the selected activities.

To set a specific due date and time:
1. Click Select.
2. Set the Due Date and Due Time.
3. Click Save Changes.
To shift the current due dates forward:
1. Click Shift.
2. Set Days to the number of days you want to move the current dates forward.
3. Click Save Changes.
