Dear Kevin:

I have carefully reviewed you appeal to drop ECON 111, HLTH 230, LAW 201 and PSYC 100 (S 2021) late. Based on the circumstances you have presented and the information I received that you had not participated in these courses, I will grant your appeal to drop the above mentioned courses past the academic deadline.

Please note that if you wish to appeal for a tuition refund, you must submit a separate appeal through the Registrar??s office. Here is a link for that appeal:

Going forward, it is your responsibility to drop courses by the drop deadlines. Appeals to drop courses late are usually considered when a student presents documented extenuating circumstances that occurred after the drop deadline.

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,


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