I asked this recently because I wanted to review our practice - and the
overwhelming response was no extensions, unless a specific case was made
for an individual student.

Subject: Deadline extensions
Dear All,
Could you give me a rough idea of your institution's policy on
deadline extensions for students with disabilities.
We currently give students the opportunity to request an extension,
which is up to 2 weeks.
I am specifically interested in whether or not 2 week is the general
maximum for students with disabilities apart from dyslexia,
particularly people with progressive or unpredictable conditions which
can cause prolonged periods of illness.
Many thanks,
Rosie
