Dear Naureen Fariza:

I am sorry to have read in your letter of appeal that you have had a difficult end of Winter term due to the COVID-19 impacts on your family members. I have carefully considered your appeal to drop ASTR 101 (Winter 2021) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

I have granted this appeal due to the nature of your extenuating circumstances and that you had remained connected with your instructor while these issues were happening.

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.

Sincerely,

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