Dear Blythe,

I have reviewed your petition for Credit Standing in PSYC 100 (FW21/22), GEOL 106 (W22) and FREN 106 (F22) and to drop DEVS 100 (FW21/22), MUSC 171 (W22), HIST 108 and SPAN 111 (F22) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file and the information that I have received from your instructors, I have decided to grant your request.

Your grades in PSYC 100 (FW21/22), GEOL 106 (W22) and FREN 106 (F22) will be replaced with a ?CR?? notation on your transcript and your grades in DEVS 100 (FW21/22), MUSC 171 (W22), HIST 108 and SPAN 111 (F22) will be replaced with a ?DR?? notation on your transcript.

I have granted this petition due to the timeline and academic impacts of your extenuating circumstances as confirmed by the documentation that you supplied. Upon your return to studies, 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.


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)
