Dear Ms. Guest:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop GNDS 125 and PHIL 115B (W 2015) past the academic deadline as well as receive Credit standing in SOCY 122B (W 2015). After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

Given the circumstances you describe you in your appeal letter, I would also be willing to allow you to receive Credit standing in HLTH 102 (W 2015). If you would like to accept this offer, please email asc.appeals@queensu.ca within 21 days of receiving this decision and we will make the appropriate changes to 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.

I am confident that in the future you will make every effort to inform yourself of the academic regulations concerning deadlines as they are outlined in Important Dates Section on the Arts and Science web page. These deadlines have been established by the Faculty of Arts and Science to ensure a fair and equitable treatment of all students and to facilitate the timely completion of university studies at Queen's.

Yours sincerely,

Sue Blake
Assistant Dean (Studies)
