Deadlines

  • Deadlines

All deadlines for History Postgraduate modules will be on a Wednesday at 12noon - Please check Tabula for personal deadlines

Work should be uploaded to Tabula by the date and time specified on the system and following the online instructions. Please note that since this is an electronic system, it is very accurate, so even if you submit your work just one second after the deadline, it will be marked as late and penalties will be imposed accordingly.

Please note that the word limit does not include essay title, footnotes, essay bibliography, graphs, tables and appendices. Marks will be deducted for overlength work, but you will not be penalised for producing under length work, provided quality is not sacrificed to brevity. Learning to write to a word limit is one of the skills the degree is designed to encourage you to cultivate.

Feedback will be due 20 working days after the deadline.
