The following services will be disrupted intermittently on Thu 21 May from 1900 hrs to 2300 hrs (4 hours) due to load balance maintenance:
We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Quick Submit must now be done directly in Turnitin.
Learn how to set up and use Quick Submit in Turnitin.
Turnitin is now accessible to instructors and students via single sign-on.

Once again, the Centre for Instructional Technology apologises for this incident.
We are working with Turnitin to ensure that this issue does not happen again.
UPDATE – Wed 15 April, 1140 hrs
Turnitin access has been restored.
UPDATE – Tue 14 April, 1000 hrs
CIT is testing the logins after Turnitin resolved the user account issues. We have asked a small pool of users to verify that they can log in and that their work is intact.
We advise users not to log in yet.
IVLE integration is still disabled.
UPDATE – Fri 10 April, 1600 hrs
Unfortunately, the resolution of the student accounts issue is taking longer than expected due to complications which are exacerbated by the time zone difference between Singapore and UK (where our Turnitin support is based). We do not expect access to be restored this weekend.
UPDATE – Wed 8 April, 1800 hrs
Turnitin has rectified the issue for the majority of staff. However, we cannot reopen access to Turnitin until the student accounts have been rectified. This may take two days at minimum.
Once again, we advise staff who require Turnitin submissions from students this week to extend the assignment deadlines to some time next week.
UPDATE – Tue 7 April, 1550 hrs
We have disabled all access to Turnitin (direct, quick submit and IVLE) as at 1400 hrs today as it is impacting the troubleshooting and resolution process.
We ask for your patience and understanding.

Dear NUS Turnitin users,
There has been a major issue with Turnitin that has resulted in errors in most user accounts.
Rest assured that your classes, assignments and papers in Turnitin are intact.
Staff Users (Instructors)
On logging in, you may see that your Turnitin account is empty. This is because Turnitin creates a new account, yourusername@u.nus.edu, linked to your NUSNET ID.
Student Users
On logging in, you may see that your Turnitin account is empty. This is because Turnitin creates a new account, yourusername@nus.edu.sg, linked to your NUSNET ID.
Do not attempt to re-enrol in your class.
IVLE Workbin Submission Users
If you use the IVLE Workbin Turnitin integration, you may see that your papers are visible but cannot be accessed, displaying an unknown error message.
This is because the issue affecting the accounts breaks the link between the display of your report and the actual reports. Once the issue with the accounts is resolved you should be able to access the report(s) again.
All Users
We know that these issues have caused massive disruption to your work.
CIT is working with Turnitin to resolve these issues as soon as possible.
In the mean time, we ask for your patience and understanding.
We deeply apologise for this lapse in service.
Regards,
Centre for Instructional Technology
