Dear Mr. Mirzakhanlou:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop NSCI 414, NSCI 444, PHAR 450 and PHGY 494 (W 2015) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

If you have not participated in these courses due to your circumstances, you may submit a separate appeal through the Office of the University Registrar to request a refund of your tuition fees for these courses. The appeal form can be found at: http://www.queensu.ca/registrar/sites/webpublish.queensu.ca.uregwww/files/files/Tuition_Fee_Amendment_Appeal_Form.pdf If you have any questions about this process, their office can be reached at 613-533-2040.

Please also remember that personal counselling is available throughout the year free of charge to all Queen's students. Appointments can be made by calling Health, Counselling and Disability Services at 613-533-6000 ext. 787264. It is a confidential service.

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,

Johanne Bénard, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
