View Assignments

In Assignments, you can view all the assignments in your course.

By default, assignments are grouped by overdue assignments, upcoming assignments, undated assignments, and past assignments.

  • Overdue Assignments: assignments and discussions that are past the due date, are still available, have not been submitted, and have not been graded.
  • Upcoming Assignments: assignments, discussions, and quizzes that have an upcoming due date.
  • Undated Assignments: assignments, discussions, and quizzes that do not have a due date.
  • Past Assignments: assignments and discussions that are past the due date and either are not available, have been submitted, or have received a grade; quizzes that are past the due date.


Each assignment also includes an icon with the assignment type: assignment [1], discussion [2], or quiz [3].

Note: The Assignments page supports keyboard shortcuts. To view a list of keyboard shortcuts, press the Comma key.

View Assignment Details

Each assignment displays the assignment name [1], any availability dates for the assignment [2], due date (if any) [3], and the number of points the assignment is worth.



View Availability Dates

View Availability Dates

The first dates you may see are called availability dates. Sometimes your instructor only wants you to submit an assignment during a specified date range, so the available dates are the range of time that the assignment is accessible to you.

  1. If the assignment does not have a date listed, the assignment is open; you can submit the assignment at any time during your course.  
  2. If the assignment says Available until[date], you can submit the assignment until the specified date.
  3. If the assignment says Not Available Until[date], the assignment is locked until the specified date.
  4. If the assignment says Closed, the assignment cannot accept submissions.  

Note: If a date does not include a time, the listed date defaults to 12 am. Therefore, the last day for the assignment is the full day before the listed date. For instance, if an assignment is Available until December 15, you can access the assignment until December 14 at 11:59 pm.

View Due Dates

The second set of dates are the Due dates [1] for each respective assignment. Any assignments submitted after the due date are marked as late; some instructors may deduct points for late submissions. Again, not all assignments may include a Due date.

You can still submit late assignments before the Available until date.

Please be aware that the Due date may be before or on the Available date.

Due dates also include a time [2]. If your instructor does not set a specific time, the assignment due time defaults to 11:59 pm and submissions will be late if submitted after 11:59:59 pm.
