Decision Date: March 22, 2021
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Joseph Stimac
Student Email: 19js127@queensu.ca

Course: HLTH 101
Term: Fall
Year: 2020
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline

Dear Joseph Stimac:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop HLTH 101 (F 2020) past the academic deadline and after reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

I have granted this appeal based on your report that you didn€™t know that you had been enrolled in this class off the waitlist. I have also received information from the instructor of HLTH 101 that confirms that you did not participate in this Fall term class at all. I recognize that you are now aware of how the waitlist process works and am confident that going forward you will make every effort to check your schedule in SOLUS as well as to inform yourself of the academic regulations concerning deadlines as they are outlined in the Important Dates section on the Arts and Science web page and ensure that courses are dropped on SOLUS successfully before the posted drop deadline.

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.

Yours sincerely,

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