# Exception for a student

**How do I provide an Exception (such as an extra attempt or different due date) for a specific student?**

Exemptions allow you to provide the student with additional attempts, a different due date, or both.

There are different places that you can add an exception for a student:

- [From assessment submissions](/v1/docs/exceptions#from-assessment-submissions)
- [From the Gradebook List view](/v1/docs/exceptions#from-the-gradebook-list-view)
- [From the Gradebook Grid view](/v1/docs/exceptions#from-the-gradebook-grid-view)

Take note!

An exception applies only to the selected student and assessment;** it does not change the assessment settings for the rest of the class**.
