Dear Kamal Ramnares,

I am sorry to have read of the extenuating circumstances that you were dealing with during Fall/Winter term 2018/19 and I have reviewed your appeal to change the grades you received in POLS 354, POLS 360 (F 2018) and POLS 385, POLS 332, POLS 383 (W 2019) 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 grades in POLS 354, POLS 360, POLS 385, POLS 332 and POLS 383 will appear on your transcript as CR.

I encourage you to continue to work with your QSAS Advisor who can continue to help you manage both your health and your academics.

Best of luck with your courses this term.

Sincerely,


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