Deadlines sneak up fast. If you’re short on time, you can always request an extension from your professor—your request may be based on real or fictionalized reasons. Alternatively, you could submit a corrupted file (a file your professor can’t open) and make the extension appear like an unintentional, happy accident.
Asking Your Teacher for an Extension
- If you're in college or graduate school, drop by your professor’s office hours.
- If you're in high school or middle school, ask to speak to your teacher after class or set up a time to meet with them.
- If you're making up an excuse, your professor might be able to see right through your lie. It might better to skip the face-to-face meeting and email them instead. [1] X Research source
- If you are struggling with depression and/or anxiety, don’t just say “I am overwhelmed.” Instead, explain how your mental health is affecting your ability to complete the assignment. “I’ve been struggling with depression all since midterms. I’ve learned that when I feel depressed, I have a very hard time focusing on my assignments. It has been very difficult for me to sit down a complete the paper.”
- “Due to my financial situation, I had to start working this semester. My work schedule and class schedule are very demanding. I am struggling to manage both.”
- "My parents are both working overtime right now. I have been watching my little siblings for them. I am having a hard time balancing school and my responsibilities at home"
- "I am training for a big competition. My practices are going way longer than expected and by the time I get home I am too exhausted to do my work." [2] X Research source
- “May I have the weekend to complete the assignment?”
- “Can I have three days to finish my paper?” [3] X Research source
- If they say “yes,” thank them profusely and work hard to meet your new deadline.
- If they say “no,” thank them for their time and start working on the assignment as soon as you can.
- If your teacher says “yes” but attaches a grade penalty, accept the grade penalty, thank them for the extension, and work diligently to meet your new deadline. [4] X Research source
Finding an Excuse
- If you have to print out your paper, experiencing “printer problems” may grant you a few extra hours to work on the assignment.
- If you typically store all of your work on a USB Drive, tell your teacher the thumb drive was stolen or misplaced. They may give you a few days to search for the missing drive. [5] X Research source
- “I am taking the MCAT next month and have been studying for the test non-stop. As a result, the assignment for your class fell off my radar. May I have a few days to complete it?”
- I am taking the SAT on Saturday and I really need to study for my Latin subject test. Can I have a few more days on my project?"
- “I have three papers due at the same time. I am struggling to devote attention to each assignment. May I please have an extension so I can produce a paper I am proud of?” [6] X Research source
- Be prepared for your professor to ask for proof or to look into your situation. [7] X Research source
Turning In a Corrupted File
- Professors and teachers are aware of this common trick. If you get caught, you may get a zero on the assignment and/or sent to the school's administrators. Before you consider this method, explore all of your other options and check your school's policies on the matter.
- You can copy and paste text from the internet, your rough draft, or even use an old paper.
- Name the document as your professor requested.
- Save the file to your desktop.
- Click Save .
- Navigate to [ Corrupt-A-File.net ].
- Scroll down to “Select the file to corrupt” and select one of the following options: “From Your Device”, “From Dropbox”, or “From Google Drive”. If you saved the document on your desktop, click “From Your Device”.
- Locate the file and click [[button|Select}} or Open .
- Click Corrupt File . Once corrupted you will receive the following message: “Your file was dutifully corrupted”.
- Click on the download button (black, downward pointing arrow).
- Rename the document (if desired), change the location (if desired), and click Save .
- Right-click on the document’s icon, hover over “Open with” and select “Notepad”. A Notepad file will open. In addition to the filler text, you will see the document’s code (a jumble of letters, numbers, punctuation marks etc.).
- Delete a portion of the code. Do not delete it all!
- Press Ctrl + S and click Save . [8] X Research source
- Mac users will see a “Convert File” dialog box.
- Windows users will see the message “The document name or path is not valid”. [9] X Research source
- If your professor or teacher discovers you intentionally corrupted the file, you may get in serious trouble. Ask for an extension or simply submit what you have completed before you try this method. If you are doing online school just be sure to send an email explaining why and you can even make up a lie on why it wasn't turned in on time. Tell them you were stressed and had too much work to do so you forgot about it.
Community Q&A
- Your professor has the right to say “no” when you ask for an extension. Be prepared for this response. Thanks Helpful 0 Not Helpful 0
Tips from our Readers
- Although students see lying as the best possible way to get an extension, it’s really not! Only lie as a last resort or when the teacher absolutely won’t offer an extension.
- Try not to lie to your professors if you can help it. You may be kicked out of school for violations of the academic honesty policy or have other consequences.
- Do not submit several corrupted files to the same professor. They will catch on. Thanks Helpful 16 Not Helpful 1

About This Article
If your assignment is overdue, you may be able to buy more time by asking for an extension. Talk to your teacher as soon as you can and go after class or during break when they’ll have time to listen to you. Explain specifically why you’ve fallen behind and ask if it’s possible to get an extension. For example, if you’ve been struggling with depression, you’ve had to work a job to help support your family, or you’ve had technical problems, your teacher might offer you some extra time to finish your assignment. Try not to take it personally if they say no, since the decision might be out of your teacher’s hands, and it might be unfair to other students. For more tips, including how to make a corrupted file to buy you time on your assignment, read on. Did this summary help you? Yes No

Because of the numerous options provided by MS Word, it might be difficult for a beginner to handle. All you have to do is become familiar with MS Word’s options before moving on to the assignment.
Here in this blog, we will explain 14 best steps you need to follow in order to know how to make an assignment on MS word.
How to make an assignment on MS word
Table of Contents

Because some of them are worried about completing the task, and even if they aren’t worried, they don’t know how to use Microsoft Word effectively, which can be disastrous for many. This blog is being published to teach you how to make an assignment in Microsoft Word.
1. Setting the layout of the page for your assignment
On the Toolbar, select the Page Layout tab. Likewise, Page Setup options will appear.
2. Set Margins
Set the margins as follows (Standard measure for the margin):
- Bottom: 2.5cm
- Left: 2.5cm (or 3.2cm)
- Right: 2.5cm (or 3.2cm)
3. Setting Orientation of the page
- Orientation: Portrait
4. Setting Size
- Set to A4 unless otherwise specified.
5. Setting styles
Go Back to the Home tab, You will find the Styles options in the right of the toolbar you will need to use these steps to set the headings and paragraph text for your work.
6. For Headings

- H2: Arial 12 pt bold, italics

Therefore, it is simpler to make one record, embed your significant headings, and enter the content from that point. But, if you decide to make separate documents while setting up your task (for example, a different record for references), you will need to copy and paste the final contents into the one-word document and finalize the formatting there.

Formatting and presenting your assessments correctly is important because many include marks for presentation.
This may include marks for things such as:
- formatting and layout
- APA referencing
- writing style
- grammar and spelling.
Before you start on your assessment:
- check your assessment question, emails from your course leader, and learning materials for how it should be presented
- read the instructions carefully. Make sure you understand them and follow them exactly
- if you're not sure about what’s required contact your course leader.
General guidelines for electronic submissions
- Most assessments should be produced using Microsoft Word.
- You can also submit assessments using: .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx or .rtf.
- if you don’t have Microsoft Word go to My Open Polytechnic to download and access your free version
- if you're not sure about the file type required, contact your course leader.
- Use a clear, readable font, such as Verdana, Calibri, Tahoma or Arial and use the same font throughout.
- Use black text on a white background.
- Avoid coloured backgrounds or text in a colour other than black, unless you have special permission to use them.
- Use 11 or 12 point font for the body of your assessment.
- Use 1.5 spacing and 2.53 cm (1”) wide margins.
- Leave a blank line between paragraphs.
- If the questions are short, leave a blank line between each question. If they are long, start each question on a new page.
- Left-justify your work (also known as left-aligned).
- Use bold for headings.
- Essays don’t usually need subheadings; reports usually do.
Most assessments need a title page, which should include:
- the title and number of the assessment
- the course number and name
- the due date
- your full name and student number.
Centre this information on the page, starting approximately one-third of the way down the page.
- Number and clearly label figures and tables.
- Add numbers as follows: Figure 1, Figure 2, Table 1, Table 2, and so on.
- Put table and figure captions above the table.
- Don't number the items in a reference list.
For more help with figures and tables, check:
Get more help with tables and figures – APA Style website
Headers and footers
Insert a header or footer on each page (except the title page). It should contain:
- your name (last name, first name/s)
- your student number
- the course code
- the assessment number
- page numbers.
Reference list
The reference list comes at the end of the assessment and should start on a new page labelled 'References'.
Need more help with reference lists? Check out the guides below:
Quick referencing APA guidelines (PDF 47 KB; opens in a new window)
Guide to APA referencing (PDF 395.11 KB; opens in a new window)
Appendices are used for information that:
- is too long to include in the body of your assessment
- supplements or complements the information you are providing.
Start each appendix (if applicable) on a new page. If there's just one appendix label it ‘Appendix’ without a number. If there is more than one, label them Appendix A, Appendix B, and so on.
In the main text of your assessment, refer to the Appendix by the label – for example, Appendix A.
Tops and bottoms of pages
Check the top and bottom of your pages to ensure they avoid:
- widows – single lines of text at the top of a page
- orphans – first lines of paragraphs at the bottom of a page
- tombstones – headings or subheadings alone at the bottom of a page
- split lists – lists that are divided between two pages (if possible).
General guidelines for hard copies
Most of the guidelines above also apply to hard copies (printed or handwritten documents).
If your course requires or allows handwritten assessments, be sure to follow the course instructions on presenting handwritten assessments.
Word limits and word count guidelines
Word limits support the development of concise writing skills. Word count guidelines help you to understand the expectation of workload for an assessment.
For more detailed information about these go to:

After the submission has completed, a digital receipt is displayed in your browser window. A copy is also sent via email. It is important to use a valid email address to receive this copy of the digital receipt. Save the receipt and the submission ID it contains, as this is proof of a completed submission. If the digital receipt is not shown on screen after submission, return to the class portfolio page and view the assignment to ensure the paper submission completed correctly. Submissions can be checked and viewed by clicking on the title of the paper under the title column to the right of the assignment name.

Dear Hanan Abdelnabi,
Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.
Per the description shared, I would like to summarize your requirement i.e., you would like to edit the Word document which submitted as assignment in online.
If my understanding of your requirement is correct, I would like to let you know whether the submission of assignment is Teams Assignment. If yes, you can undo the turn in and make the changes to the attached Word document, then turn in the assignment. When you turn in the assignment again, there will new version created understand Submitted files folder in the assignment, where the teacher will see the new version.
If not, please share more detailed description about the submission of assignment which helps us to better understand and guide you in right direction.
We look forward to your response. Thanks for your cooperation.

Presumably you uploaded the assignment to a learning platform of some type, which means that you have to contact your teacher or the IT support or something similar.

Hi Hanan, would suggest that you submit an amended assignment with an explanation as to what and why you are doing so. This at least will give the other party something to consider and whilst they can refuse it, they cannot ever say it did not exist.

Create a new word document. Instead of asking for a hard copy, your professor may require you to submit the assignment online, allowing you to create your own "technical difficulty." Instead of sending a functioning word document, you can send your professor a corrupted file. To start this process, open a new word document.
To submit an assignment, click the Start Assignment button. Note: If you cannot see the Start Assignment button, your instructor may not want you to submit your assignment online or the availability date has passed.
