Submission Number: 10268
Decision Date: April 17, 2023
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Caitlin Nowak
Student Email: caitlinannanowak@gmail.com
Course: DEVS 280
Term: Winter
Year: 2023
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline
Dear Caitlin Nowak,
I am sorry to have read of the passing of your father and want to offer you my condolences. I have carefully considered your petition to drop DEVS 280 (W23) after the academic deadline and have decided to grant your request.
Going forward, you should pause to evaluate the impacts of extenuating circumstances on your studies before the Academic Deadline of each term. If you have fallen behind in a course or find the material too difficult, you should drop the course at that time. 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.
With sincere sympathy,
Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
