Dear Lacshmi:
I have carefully considered your request to drop CISC 203 (F24) after the academic deadline and for an extension of an Incomplete Grade in IDIS 199 (S24). After reviewing your file and the information supplied by the instructor of these courses, I have decided to grant your request.
I have granted this request due to the timeline and academic impacts of extenuating circumstances as confirmed within the documentation you supplied and the support that you have received from the instructor of IDIS 199. Your grade in CISC 203 (F24) will be replaced with a DR notation on your transcript. It is your responsibility to connect with Dr Cunningham, the instructor of IDIS 199, to make the appropriate arrangements to complete the outstanding work prior to August 31, 2025.
I suggest that you continue to work with Queen’s Student Wellness Services so that you obtain ongoing support to help manage the impact of your health on your academics moving forward. I also encourage you to meet with an Academic Advisor to discuss an alternate field of study so that you can consider a change of Plan that would allow for academic success.
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,
Scott-Morgan Straker
