*Only a single file may be submitted to a Turnitin assignment. Any second or subsequent submission will overwrite the original submission in this assignment. Check with your instructors to avoid overwriting.

After a submission has been completed it will be immediately available to view from the class portfolio page for the student or the assignment inbox of the instructor.

Submissions made previously can be viewed in any active or expired class that the student is still enrolled in on Turnitin. Instructors may delete classes or unenroll students which prevent the student from viewing submissions that were made in the class.

Every paper that has been submitted can be viewed by clicking on the View button next to the assignment name. This will open a new window in a separate screen that displays the paper information in the heading at the top and the full text of the paper beneath.

1. From the main homepage, select the name of the class to view the class portfolio.
2. Find the assignment inbox for the assignment you submitted to. Under the Similarity column, you’ll find your similarity score. This is a numerical and visual indicator of the amount of similarity we found in your work.

The color of the report icon indicates the similarity score of the paper, based on the amount of matching or similar text that was uncovered. The percentage range is 0% to 100%. The possible similarity ranges are:

Blue: No matching text
Green: One word to 24% matching text
Yellow: 25-49% matching text
Orange: 50-74% matching text
Red: 75-100% matching text

The Match Overview will show the numerical similarity score of your paper.


Having clicked the Match Overview icon, this will also highlight any matches within the paper itself. Each match can be color coded to help you identify them easily.


By clicking on one of the sources from the Match Overview side panel, you can discover how many matches have been found for each source. Click the navigation arrows to jump from one match to the next; this will move you through the paper itself.

Should you wish to see a match breakdown for each source, click the arrow to the right of the source.

You can now see a large list of all the sources concerning this particular match. Click any of these matches to be directed to it on your paper.
