Dear Mr. Townshend-Carter:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop ARTH 212, CLST 303 and PHIL 233 (W 2016) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

Given your circumstances, I would be willing to allow you to drop CLST 410 past the academic deadline and change your grade in HIST 250 to Credit standing as well. If you would like to accept this offer please email asc.appeals@queensu.ca within 21 days of receiving this decision and we will make the appropriate changes to your transcript.

Note that any change in academic registration may impact government or private-firm student financial assistance eligibility and/or funding. Please consult with the Student Awards Office, Office of the University Registrar, Gordon Hall, to understand the potential implications of changes to course or program registration and/or the consequences of not successfully completing the required course load.

I am confident that in the future you will make every effort to inform yourself of the academic regulations concerning deadlines as they are outlined in Important Dates Section on the Arts and Science web page. These deadlines have been established by the Faculty of Arts and Science to ensure a fair and equitable treatment of all students and to facilitate the timely completion of university studies at Queen's.

Yours sincerely,



Sue Blake
Assistant Dean (Studies)
