How long is usual for an essay extension after the death of a parent?

The essay is 5,000 word for an MA in literature. They had already given me an open-ended extension because my Mum was ill, but now she's passed away I'm not sure how much extra time to take.How long is usual for an essay extension after the death of a parent?
take as much time as you need....don't worry about putting a time limit on it. no one can tell you when you will feel better.








i'm sorry for your loss!How long is usual for an essay extension after the death of a parent?
Why don't you ask your advisor? He or she will give you a definite deadline.


I'd say though that as long as it's in by the terminal date for your MA, you should be OK, as long as your advisor is getting drafts and being able to see progress towards it in the meantime...





OAN: Your MA Thesis is only 5k words???? That seems way short for a MA Lit. Thesis (20pp approx.)
You need to talk to the professor involved. This is not a question we can answer. We can't read that professor's mind.





But my sympathies on the loss of your mother.
