Dear Ms. Malkawi:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop BIOL 102 and CHEM 281 (F 2016) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

If you do not plan on resuming your studies over the winter term, please ensure that you drop your courses on SOLUS by January 20, 2017 to receive a full tuition refund. If you are unable to drop your courses on your own, please notify the Faculty Office in writing (asc.registration@queensu.ca) prior to January 20 and we can drop them on your behalf.

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)
