Decision Letter
Appeal Number: 5894
Decision Date: July 17, 2019
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Hongbo Liu
Student Email: 17hl10@queensu.ca
Dear Hongbo Liu:
I have carefully considered your appeal to waive the Faculty ruling that you be Required to Withdraw for One Year. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request. You may now resume your studies at Queen's University.
As you continue in your course of study it is your responsibility to take steps for the successful completion of your program and maintain a GPA consistent with the requirements of your plan. These are some strategies that I strongly encourage you to consider:
€¢ Choose courses carefully. As you know, achieving a higher grade in a repeated course will improve your GPA. This course of action will help to ensure you will be in good academic standing and not at risk of being required to withdraw for three years when we assess your standing in May 2020.
€¢ Reflect on your program choice. Are you in the right plan for your interests and aptitudes You are currently attempting PSYC 100 for a third time to try and access that Plan. I suggest that if, after this 3rd attempt, you are not able to achieve the required grade to access that Plan, you consider an alternative Plan.
€¢ Seek out advice to help guide you to a new Plan and discuss ways to improve your academic performance. Academic counselling is available through an advisor in the Faculty of Arts and Science Student Services Office (main floor Dunning Hall, phone 613-533-2470) or through your plan department.
€¢ The Learning Commons in Stauffer Library also provides a range of services, including workshops designed to improve study skills and develop strategies for meeting the demands of academic life.
€¢ Student Wellness Services Centre located in Mitchell Hall offers personal and academic counselling free of charge to all Queen's students, as well as individual consultation to aid in coping with difficulties of a more personal nature.
€¢ Going forward, you should be attentive to your progress and assess whether you are actively engaged and attending classes, completing your readings and assignments. If not, you should drop any courses in which you have fallen behind in by the end of week 8 (the drop deadline). Appeals for late drops are generally reserved for those who encounter extenuating circumstances after week 8.
Best of luck in the upcoming year
Yours sincerely,
Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
