Dear Mr. Fina:
I have carefully considered your appeal to drop BIOL 103 (W 2018), CHEM 112, FILM 110 (FW 2017/18), GEOL 106 and GPHY 101 (W 2018) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.
I am also willing to change your grade in BIOL 102 (F 2017) to Credit standing. For information about Credit standing, please see: https://www.queensu.ca/artsci/students-at-queens/academic-appeals under General Appeal Questions or https://www.queensu.ca/artsci/sites/default/files/academic_regulations.pdf See Academic Regulation 10. If you 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.
Please ensure that you register with Accessibility Services as soon as possible to ensure that you receive the appropriate academic accommodations moving forward. The appeals system is not designed to accommodate ongoing circumstances such as chronic health issues so it is the student€™s responsibility to work with Accessibility Services to ensure that your accommodations are properly in place and to work with an academic advisor in the Faculty Office to receive advice on dropping classes (by the Week 8 deadlines) if you feel that you are still not progressing well, despite your accommodation arrangements. Appointments can be made to meet with an academic advisor by calling 613-533-2470.
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,
Johanne Bénard, Ph.D.
