Prerequisites & Requirements: What if a student misses a due date?

I am new to Canvas and have not gotten into the Mastery Paths yet. I have a course going live this week. I am using #prerequisites‌ and #modular requirements‌. What happens if a student decides they do not want to complete one of the items or does not get to it in time? In the LMS we used previously I was able to set the next module to open if certain assignments were completed, and set a date that the next module would open for everyone regardless of what they had completed.

I am concerned that I will be dealing with a lot of requests for late work. If they have not completed a prerequisite and it is past the due date for that item, what options other than giving them an extension on the items due are there to get them to the next module?
