10-Point Assignment Front Page Checklist for Bangladeshi University Students (2026 Edition)

Why a Checklist Saves Your Marks

Every semester in Bangladesh, thousands of university students lose 1–5 marks per assignment not because their work was wrong, but because their cover page was incomplete or incorrectly formatted. Teaching assistants and faculty evaluators at packed departments — managing 100 to 300+ scripts — do not have time to decode ambiguous front pages.

A missing Student ID may result in your script not being properly attributed to your record. A wrong Course Code can cause your assignment to be misfiled entirely. An absent Submission Date creates administrative confusion about late submission penalties.

The Complete 10-Point Cover Page Checklist

Use the following checklist before printing or uploading any assignment, lab report, term paper, project report, or thesis at any Bangladeshi university:

1. ✅ Official University Name & Crest

• Is the university's full official name spelled correctly without abbreviations? (e.g., North South University, not NSU)
• Is the official high-resolution crest / seal logo included, properly sized, and not distorted or stretched?
• Is the logo file at minimum 300 DPI or SVG format to ensure crisp printing?

2. ✅ Department / Faculty Subtitle

• Does your cover page clearly state your specific department (e.g., Department of Business Administration) — not just a generic faculty name?
• Is the full official department name used as registered in your university's academic charter?
• Common examples: Department of Computer Science & Engineering, Department of Architecture, School of Business & Economics, Institute of Education & Research

3. ✅ Assignment Type Header

• Is the nature of the document clearly identified in bold uppercase text at the top?

4. ✅ Prominent Report / Paper Title

• Is your title centered, fully capitalized, and in bold at a font size of 20pt–26pt?
• Does the title accurately represent the content of your submission? Avoid vague titles like "Assignment" or "Report".
• If the title spans more than one line, does it break at a logical point with clean 1.3x–1.5x line spacing?
• Is the title free of spelling errors? (Have someone else review it before printing.)

5. ✅ Exact Course Code & Title

• Have you verified the exact course code against your official course syllabus, not from memory?
• Common mistakes: writing CSE 321 instead of CSE 3201, or EEE 201 instead of EEE 2101.
• Is the full course title written exactly as it appears in your university's academic catalog? (Not the abbreviated nickname students use.)

6. ✅ Section, Batch & Academic Semester

• Section: e.g., Section 03, Section A, Section B
• Batch: e.g., Batch 48, Batch 52, 46th Batch
• Semester: e.g., Spring 2026, Summer 2026, Fall 2025

Section and Batch identifiers help TAs sort hundreds of scripts by class section rapidly. Missing these fields causes administrative delays.

7. ✅ Student Credentials (Submitted By)

• Full Name: Written exactly as registered in university records (not nicknames).
• Student ID / Roll Number: Copied exactly from your university ID card. Do not abbreviate or rearrange. Examples: 2023-1-60-045 (NSU format), 23341001 (BRACU format), 20201087 (BUET format).
• Department: Full department name matching Zone 2 of your cover page.
• Academic Session / Year: e.g., 2023–2024 — This is your academic intake year range, not the current year.

8. ✅ Group Member List (If Applicable)

For group assignments and projects:

• Are all group member names listed — no one omitted?
• Are all Student IDs listed alongside each name?
• Are members sorted numerically by Student ID (from smallest to largest)? This is the convention at most Bangladeshi universities.
• Is the submission type updated to Group? (e.g., "GROUP ASSIGNMENT 02" rather than just "ASSIGNMENT 02")

9. ✅ Instructor Credentials (Submitted To)

• Full name with appropriate title: e.g., Dr. Nafis Ahmad, Engr. Rashed Karim, Prof. Dr. Moniruzzaman
• Correct academic designation — not guessed, but confirmed. Common titles in Bangladesh:
  • Lecturer
  • Senior Lecturer
  • Assistant Professor
  • Associate Professor
  • Professor / Professor Dr.
  • Adjunct Faculty
• Correct department / faculty name

10. ✅ Date of Submission

• Written in long format: 29 July 2026 or 29th July, 2026
• Avoid numeric shorthand: ❌ 29/07/26, ❌ 07-29-2026
• This should be the actual submission deadline date, not the date you finished writing. If uncertain, use the official assignment deadline date from your course outline.
