Dear Aaron Chaytor:
I am sorry to have read in your letter of appeal that you have had a difficult term, in part due to COVID19 and family related challenges. I have carefully considered your appeal to drop CISC 221, STAT 362 and STAT 353 (W 2021) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.
Aaron, this is a lenient decision since normally an appeal would require documentation, but I do appreciate that you have had several challenges this term. Going forward, I suggest you carefully evaluate your progress in your courses during week 7 of the term and if you have fallen behind or you are not performing in the course to your satisfaction, you should drop courses by the week 8 drop date deadline. Let me also advise you of the Academic Consideration service where a student can request short term accommodations if you require leeway with assignment due dates. Here is the link for information about that process:

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 trust that you will plan to prioritize your academics going forward.
Sincerely,
Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
