Dear Olivier Mugabo:
I have carefully considered your appeal for a Aegrotat Standing in POLS 280 and ARTH 372 (W21). After reviewing your file and the information that I received from your instructors, I have decided the following:
To deny your request for Aegrotat Standing in POLS 280 and ARTH 374 (W21). Academic Regulation 10.3.1. states that, Aegrotat estimated standing in a course is reserved for situations in which a student, who has completed and passed at least 60% of the work for a course, but because of illness or other extenuating circumstances beyond his or her control, is unable to complete all the work of the course (see Academic Regulation 6)?. The information that I received from your instructors indicates that you had not completed 60% of the work in either of these courses and did not meet the learning outcomes based on the components that were completed. Therefore, you are not eligible for this academic appeal option.
I understand that this is a disappointing decision, but I am willing to allow you to drop POLS 280 and ARTH 372 (W21) after the academic deadline based on the circumstances outlined and the documentation that you have provided that confirms the timeline of impact. If you would like to accept this offer, please email asc.appeals@queensu.ca within 21 days of receiving this letter and we will make the appropriate changes to your transcript.
If you wish to appeal the Associate Dean??s decision to the Board of Studies, information and deadlines and the 21-day deadline can be found at www.queensu.ca/artsci/students-at-queens/academic-appeals (click on ??Board of Studies?). You may contact the Office of the University Ombudsperson for information about student rights and responsibilities as well as guidance on policy and procedure (www.queensu.ca/ombuds).
Sincerely,
Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
