Note

PLEASE NOTE:

  • The match(es) that Turnitin® displays may not necessarily be the source(s) that you used. Turnitin® simply returns the FIRST match that it finds. This may, or may not, match your actual source.

  • The Originality Report you see is exactly the same as the one the markers see. Please do NOT contact the lecturer/marker/tutor to explain your report.

  • Do not wait until near to the submission date and time to check the Originality Report. It is best to upload your draft a few days before the due date, to see if you need to make changes before your final submission.

  • You are allowed three resubmission attempts where the Originality Report will generate within an hour. After three attempts, you'll have to wait 24 hours before a new Originality Report can be generated.

  • If you submit the same paper more than once, the Originality Report may display a percentage match of 100%. Don’t panic if this happens, as your marker will be able to identify that it is matching with your own (previous) paper.
