Dear Philip Winterton:

I was sorry to have read of the difficult health related challenges you shared in your letter of appeal. No doubt the circumstances outlined have impacted your studies so, I have decided to grant your appeal to drop ECON 360 (W 2016), ECON 370, POLS 211 (F 2017) and ECON 351, ECON 390, ECON 484, HIST 252 HIST 222 (W 2018) past the academic deadline based on those circumstances and the documentation you have provided.

I am also willing to drop COMM 324, ECON 320, ECON 351 (W 2016) and HIST 295 (F 2017) late based on the circumstances outlined and the documentation provided. If you wish to accept this offer, please email asc.appeals@queensu.ca within 21 days of receiving this decision letter.

Note that any change in academic registration may impact government or private-firm student financial assistance eligibility and/or funding. 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.

I wish you well in your continued recovery.

Yours sincerely,



Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
