Decision Letter
Submission Number: 10304
Decision Date: April 12, 2023
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Emma Dale
Student Email: 20erd@queensu.ca
Course: MATH 281
Term: Winter
Year: 2023
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline
Dear Emma:
I am sorry to read in your petition letter that you have encountered challenges related to MATH 281 (W 2023) and I have carefully considered your request to drop that course past the academic deadline. After reviewing your petition, 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withdrawn?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.
Going forward, I recommend that you pause and evaluate your health and progress in your courses during week 7 of each term, and if you have fallen behind or your health is impacting your studies, you should drop courses by the week 8 drop deadline. 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 at Queen's and the petition process is not designed to manage a chronic condition.
Additionally Emma, I strongly encourage you to continue to work with your health care team who can help you manage both your health and your academics.
Another tool to manage your academics in addition to dropping a course by the drop deadline is our Academic Consideration protocol. A student can request short term consideration if they need more time to complete an assignment or had to miss a class due to documented extenuating circumstances. Here is the link for information about that process:

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)
