There is nowhere to move the work to. With a single course running there is no lighter subject to borrow evenings from, and a lost week is a fifth of everything that course will ever grade. Recovery is arithmetic rather than effort: what remains open, what has closed for good, and whether the assignments still standing can carry the grade you actually need.

By writing yours as a standalone piece first, with its own sources and its own conclusion, so it can be handed to the team whole and reads as one person's work. Once the others return their sections, the combined document is edited into a single register and formatted properly. Nothing goes into the team space under your name without you having seen it first.

Frequently that is the better arrangement. An outline built with you before you write, a returned draft marked against the criteria the grader will use, or the weekly posts carried while the papers stay yours. Adults coming back after a long gap are rarely short of ideas. They are short of the conventions, and conventions can be taught in a few weeks rather than bought every term.

That lateness has a floor and then a wall. An instructor may take a late paper at a penalty while the classroom is open, but once it closes the submission has nowhere to go and the gradebook is simply what it says. Work is filed a day early here as a matter of habit, since a day of slack costs nothing and a closed classroom cannot be reopened.

No, and the arrangement runs the other way about: the house is engaged by you, paid by you, and answerable to you alone. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the University of Phoenix, receives nothing from the school and sends nobody to it. What is on offer is familiarity with how its classrooms count and mark, held by people who have worked inside them.
