Using Quick Submit on Turnitin.com

Instructors can use Quick Submit on the Turnitin.com site to submit a paper without first creating a class and assignment. If you need to submit a paper directly to Turnitin, you will need to log in to the Turnitin site.

  1. Start by going to Turnitin.com and, if prompted, clicking on our region, United States & Canada.
  2. Click on Login and then click the Forgot your password link and use your St. Edward's email address to request a Turnitin password. You will receive an email from Turnitin with instructions for resetting your password.
