Problems I Can’t find the Turnitin link? Ask your lecturer or college admins to show you My file is over 20Mb? Reduce the file size (eg lower image resoloution etc.) My assignment has two or more files? Unless extra assignment links have been created you must merge the files into one document before submitting I accidently submitted the wrong file? Contact your lecturer or college admins and ask them to delete your submission so you can submit again before the due date/time! My problem isn’t listed here? Go to the IT Support desk in the library, call 01792 295060 or email ITsupport@Swansea.ac.uk
