Assignment Submission timeframe
After an assignment has been submitted to SafeAssign to be analyzed, it may take up to 24 hours (during peak times) to receive the originality report. Typically, we have seen the following response times to receive the originallity report:
- If the assignment was setup as "urgent": 45 minutes to 1.45 hours
- If the assignment was setup as "non-urgent": 1 - 4 hours
The response time to receive an originallity report is dependant on the # of submissions by all college's and the time of the semester.
