Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Isaiah Adams
Student Email: 22ia10@queensu.ca

Course: KNPE 153
Term: Fall
Year: 2022
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline

Dear Isaiah Adams:

I have carefully considered your petition to drop KNPE 153 (F22) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

I acknowledge that your extenuating circumstance began after the academic drop deadline of the Fall term and I have granted this request due to the academic impacts on this course as confirmed in your petition letter. If this extenuating circumstance continues to impact you 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 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.

Yours sincerely,

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