Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.

Student Email: 18ibgv@queensu.ca

Course: PSYC343
Term: Fall
Year: 2022
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline

Dear Irina Van Roon:

I have carefully considered your petition to drop PSYC 343 (F22) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file and the documentation that you supplied, I have decided to grant your request.

I acknowledge that you had recently changed your academic plan and that you are on track to graduate with the Bachelor of Arts Psychology General upon successful completion of your other enrolled 2022/2023 courses. I have granted this petition based on??the severity of your extenuating circumstances as confirmed within the documentation that you provided.

Going forward, you should pause to evaluate the impact of your health on your classes during week 7 of the term. If you have fallen behind in a course or find the material too difficult, you should drop the course by week 8 of term. 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.

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.

Sincerely,

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