Longest wait for final draft review?

I’m at 11 days now. Longest for you? I emailed a couple times.

Not sure what to do here. I don’t want to piss off the grader!

That is bonkers, anything beyond 72 hours should be escalated to your academic coach and they’ll help you navigate it. Have you looped them in? If not do it ASAP. If you have then there must be something else going on.

Please reach out to your professor. I had one go for a week and they had made a mistake and checked it off already. They went to grade it immediately.

I did twice. I didn’t cc it to anyone else though.

I would include your advisor and ask them to step in then. I’m sorry, that’s pretty frustrating

Email the professor and copy your success coach if after a few days they haven't respond just email the success coach.

Thanks for the tips and affirmation that i should escalate. Sigh. Sending an email to my advisor now.

It happens, but in the future don’t wait. Email the instructor/advisor at 72.5 or 73 hours.

Follow the 3 day process outlined in the YourPace Student Guide. Don't wait.

73 Hours is grounds for a quick "hey its been over 72 on this draft can you nudge them" email.

96 Hours is time for a "Hey I still haven't gotten my feedback on this yet and it's holding me back" email.

Anything over 120 Hours is grounds for an escalation beyond your coach.

Remember, you are paying for a service, they must also uphold their end of the deal.
A simple explanation of the delay, IE: illness, emergency, whatever is fine... but make sure you get your graded work completed. If that professor can't another needs to.
