Dear Ms. Brown,

I have reviewed your appeal to change the grades you received in BIOL 102 and GEOL 106 (Fall 2017) to Credit standing. After careful consideration of the documentation you submitted and the information supplied by the instructors about the circumstances surrounding these courses, I have decided to grant your appeal.

Your grade in these courses will appear on your transcript as CR.

I would encourage you to let your CHEM 112 and PSYC 100 instructors know about your father€™s death in order to provide consideration for any absences, missed or late work during that difficult time.

Further, if needed, please feel free to reach out to an Academic Advisor in the Faculty of Arts & Science or to our Counselling Services who can offer support as needed.

Sincerely,



Jill Atkinson, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
