What if I am late? Will I be penalized?

Viva does not penalize you. Whether your instructor does is up to them, exactly as before.

  • If your instructor accepts late submissions, you can still submit after the deadline.
  • If not, submission closes and you will need to contact them.
  • Starting your conversation after the 15-minute window is recorded as late but is never blocked.
  • No automatic marks are deducted by Viva at any point.

If something went wrong — illness, an emergency, a broken laptop — tell your instructor rather than quietly submitting late. They can grant a retry or an extension.

This is one page of the documentation inside Viva.

Instructors get the rest — the walkthroughs, the screenshots, and Ask Viva, which finds the right page from a typed question.
