Decision Letter
Appeal Number: 9046
Decision Date: May 26, 2022
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Jacob Anderson
Student Email: 18jja1@queensu.ca
Course: POLS 318
Term: Fall
Year: 2021
Category: Request an extension of an incomplete grade
Instructor: Asbjorn Melkevik
Dear Jacob Anderson:
I have carefully considered your appeal for an Extension of an Incomplete Grade in POLS 318 (Fall 2021). After reviewing your file and the information that I received from your instructor, I have decided to deny your request.
I acknowledge that you had requested an extension on the final assignment in this class due to the ongoing impacts of your extenuating circumstances. The information that I received from your instructor indicates that they had graciously allowed you an additional month to complete this outstanding work. It is my understanding that you didn??t attempt to submit this final assignment until three weeks after the agreed upon extended deadline. As you were accommodated appropriately by the instructor of this class for the outstanding assignment, I cannot grant an Extension of an Incomplete Grade.
I understand that this is a disappointing decision, but I am willing to allow you to drop POLS 318 (F21) after the academic deadline based on the bereavement related extenuating circumstances that you outlined in your appeal letter. 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).
??Student Academic Appeals Policy (SAAP) or Rules of Procedure for USAB are Queen??s university Senate approved appeal policies. In the event that an inconsistency arises between these policies and Arts & Science regulations, SAAP and USAB will supersede.??
Sincerely,
Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Academic)
