Dear Shome:

I have carefully considered your request to drop ECON 212 and DEVS 220 (S23) after the academic deadline and for an Extension of an Incomplete Grade in in ECON 222 (W23). After reviewing your file, I have decided the following:

To grant your request to drop ECON 212 and DEVS 220 (S23) as I recognize that the academic impacts of your extenuating circumstances didn’t begin until after the drop deadline. Your grades in these courses will be replaced by a DR notation on your transcript. Please know that a student may not petition to remove a DR notation from a transcript.

To grant your request for an Extension of an Incomplete Grade in ECON 222 (W23) however, I want you to know that this was a lenient decision as you did not supply documentation that speaks to the academic impacts of your circumstances during the 2023 Winter term. I have granted this request as your instructor has graciously offered to allow you to write the final exam for this class before the current term ends on December 31, 2023. Please connect with Instructor Kennedy today to make these arrangements.

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)
