Decision Letter
Appeal Number: 8520
Decision Date: December 23, 2021
Associate Dean: Jill Atkinson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Lucas Siverns
Student Email: 14ljs4@queensu.ca
Course: HIST 211
Term: Fall
Year: 2021
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline
Course: HIST 282
Term: Fall
Year: 2021
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline
Dear Lucas Siverns:
I have carefully considered your appeal to drop HIST 211 and HIST 282 (F 2021) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.
Your final grade in these courses will be replaced with a DR notation on your transcript.
Going forward, I suggest that you carefully evaluate your progress in each of your courses during week 7 of the term. If you have fallen behind or find the material too difficult, you should drop the course before the week 8 deadline. The drop deadlines, as they have been outlined in the ??Important Dates? section on the Arts and Science web page, have been established by the Faculty of Arts and Science to ensure a fair and equitable treatment of all students.
Another tool to manage your academics in addition to dropping a course by the drop date deadline is our Academic Consideration service. A student can request short term consideration if they need more time to complete an assignment or had to miss a class due to documented extenuating circumstances. 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.
Yours sincerely,
Jill Atkinson, Ph.D.
