Dear Mr. Beckford:

I have reviewed your appeal to change the grade you received in ENGL 100 (S 2018) to Credit standing. After careful consideration of the situation you have outlined, I have decided to grant your appeal. Your grade in this course will appear on your transcript as CR.

I would like to note that I have exercised some leniency in this decision, acknowledging that the circumstances you outline were difficult to support with documentation. I am confident that the plan you have outlined, which includes help from your sister, will lead to a successful outcomes in your courses in the future. I do suggest that you watch the drop dates going forward and if life circumstances have impeded your success in your courses, you should drop them by the drop deadline date.

Best of luck in your future studies.

Sincerely,


Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
