Decision Date: March 14, 2022
Associate Dean: Amitava Chowdhury, Ph.D.
Student Name: Chi Nguyen

Course: ENGL 223
Term: Fall
Year: 2021
Category: Request aegrotat (AG) standing in a course or courses
Instructor: Molly Labenski
Dear Vanessa Nguyen:
I have carefully considered your appeal for Aegrotat Standing in ENGL 223 (F21). After reviewing your file, I have decided to deny your request.
I understand that this is a disappointing decision however Aegrotat standing is reserved for situations in which a student has completed enough work in a course to be issued an estimated grade yet but because of illness or other extenuating circumstances beyond his or her control, is unable to complete the outstanding work. The information that I received from your instructor indicates that although you did complete 75% of the work in the course, you did not meet the learning outcomes with the work that you completed.
As the documentation that you supplied within your appeal request confirms the impact of extenuating circumstances on your academic ability during the 2021 Fall term, I am willing to allow you to drop ENGL 223 (F21). 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).
