Dear Omar,

I am sorry to have read in your appeal letter the challenges you outlined, and I have carefully reviewed your appeal to change the grade you received in BIOL 102 (S 2019) to Credit standing when you were a visiting student at Queen??s. After careful consideration of the documentation you submitted and the circumstances surrounding this course, I have decided to grant your appeal.

Your grade in this course will be changed and now appear on your transcript as CR.

I have granted this appeal due to the documentation which offers proof that when you were registered in this course, you had not yet been evaluated for your learning challenges and therefore accommodations were not yet in place.

Best of luck in your future academic pursuits.

Sincerely,


Amitava Chowdhury, Ph.D.
Special Advisor to the Dean
