Dear Marcus Georgievski:

I was sorry to read about the health issues that you have been experiencing throughout the current academic year. I have carefully considered your appeal to drop MATH 112, CISC 121, CISC 102, RELS 163 and STAT 263 (Winter 2021) past the academic deadline and after reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

I have granted this appeal because of the severity of your extenuating circumstances as well as the support that you received from your health care professional as indicated on the documentation that you supplied. Going forward, I suggest that you familiar yourself with the published deadlines at the beginning of each term and make sure that you carefully assess whether you are able to manage your studies along with your health issues before the 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)
