Decision Letter
Submission Number: 11370
Decision Date: February 12, 2024
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Fiona Taylor
Student Email: 20frt@queensu.ca
Course: BCHM 102
Term: Fall
Year: 2023
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline
Course: ANAT 100
Term: Fall
Year: 2023
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline
Dear Fiona Taylor,
I have reviewed your petition to drop ANAT 100 and BCHM 102 (F23) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.
Your grades in these courses will be replaced with a DR notation on your transcript.
I have granted this petition due to the academic impacts of your extenuating circumstances as confirmed within the documentation that you supplied.
Going forward, I want you to know that the petition process is not meant to be used to manage a chronic condition. Academic impacts from ongoing circumstances should be managed proactively by utilizing options such as academic consideration or accommodations through Queen’s Student Accessibility Services (QSAS). It is the student’s responsibility to pause and evaluate the impact of extenuating circumstances on their classes during week 7 of the term. If they have fallen behind in a course or find the material too difficult, they 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)
