Dear Jay Martin:

I have reviewed your appeal to request Credit Standing in PSYC 100 (S21). After careful consideration of the information that you provided in your appeal letter, and the information supplied by the instructors surrounding this course, I have decided to grant your appeal. Your grade in PSYC 100 will appear on your transcript as CR.

I have granted this appeal as I acknowledge that your academic ability was impacted near the end of the Summer term. Going forward, I would suggest that you consider registering with Queen??s Accessibility Services so that you can work with an Accommodations Advisor who can help to manage the impact of your health on your academics.

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,

Jill Atkinson, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Academic)
