Dear Ms. Gerges:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop HIST 306 (FW 2013/14), ARTH 215, HIST 258, HIST 274, RELS 235 (W 2014), HIST 201, LLCU 215, RELS 214, SOCY 275 (F 2014), HIST 341 (FW 2014/15), GNDS 280, HIST 241, HIST 400 (W 2015), HLTH 230, LAW 201 (S 2015) and HIST 210 (F 2015) past the academic deadline as well as request Credit standing in COMM 231, COMM 251 and HIST 245 (F 2013). After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

Note that any change in academic registration (e.g. dropping courses) may impact government or private-firm student financial assistance eligibility and/or funding such as OSAP, scholarships, or bursaries. 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. A change in academic registration may also affect a student€™s enrollment status as a full or part-time student, eligibility for student visas, or benefits through external agencies.

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)
