Submission Number: 10248
Decision Date: April 10, 2023
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Alisa Borgan
Student Email: 20amb20@queensu.ca

Course: ANAT 316
Term: Winter
Year: 2023
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline

Dear Alisa Borgan,

I have reviewed your petition to drop ANAT 316 (W23) after the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

For your information: our office will process the late drop in your SOLUS account and no further action from you is required. Once dropped, the course will appear as ??withdrawn? in your schedule and a ??DR? notation will be placed on your transcript once the Winter term grades are released in May.

I have granted this request due to the academic impacts of your extenuating circumstances as described in your petition letter as well as your strong academic plan. Going forward, it is your responsibility to pause and evaluate the impact of extenuating circumstances 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.

I also suggest that you remain connected with your Queen??s Student Accessibility Services (QSAS) Advisor who can help manage the impact of your health on your academics.

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)
