Denver Seminary

47 For fall and spring semesters, course extension must be requested and approved by noon on the Friday before the last week of the semester. For intersession and summer classes, course extension requests must be submitted and approved before the last class convenes, or one week before the final assignment is due, whichever occurs later. Extensions will not be granted beyond these time limitations. Students in need of a course extension should submit their request using the form "Request for Extension of Course Work" available within 'Academic Forms' on the student portal page. The student should direct the form to the professor of the class for first approval and then submit the form to the Dean of Students for second and final approval. The student should be prepared to submit any medical documentation (if applicable) along with the request form to the Dean of Students. Once a decision is made, the student will be notified via email by the Registrar's Office. NOTE: Extension requests cannot be granted for a project, thesis, or summative paper. Extensions are not available to graduating students unless the graduation date is postponed.
