Dear Tera Armel:

I was sorry to read about the health issues that have been impacting your Winter term classes. I have carefully considered your appeal to drop PATH 430 (Winter 2021) past the academic deadline and I have decided to grant your request.

I have granted this appeal based on the severity of your extenuating circumstances as well as the information supplied by your health care provider within your supporting documentation. I acknowledge that you will be graduating soon and commend you for completing your other Winter 2021 courses despite your health-related challenges so that you can be successful in doing so.

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.

Best of luck with your ongoing recovery.

Yours sincerely,

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