Dear Sascha Kaplan,

I have reviewed your petition for Credit Standing in BIOL 102 (W22) and CISC 101 (S22). After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

I acknowledge that you weren??t able to seek support for your extenuating circumstances until late in 2022 and I have granted this petition due to the severity and academic impacts of your extenuating circumstances as confirmed by the documentation that you supplied.

Your grades in BIOL 102 (W22) and CISC 101 (S22) will be replaced with a CR notation on your transcript.

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)
