Dear Ms. Kannan:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop BCHM 218 (S 2016) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

If your health condition is not yet fully resolved, please ensure that you continue to monitor your academic progress carefully over the fall and winter terms. If you feel that you are not able to keep up with your current workload you should consider reducing your load by dropping courses within the academic deadlines. The last day to drop a fall term course is Friday, November 4 and the last day to drop a winter term course is Friday, March 3.

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)
