Dear Mehar,

I have carefully considered your request for a deferral of the final exam in BIOL 200 (W25). After reviewing your petition and the information supplied by the instructor of the course, 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 as well as the support that you received from the instructor of the course. It is your responsibility to connect with instructor Birt as soon as possible to make the arrangements to complete the exam prior to August 31, 2025.

Mehar, I encourage you to contact an Academic Advisor to discuss your course enrollment for the upcoming academic year and establish an academic plan moving forward. Advising services, including the online link to connect with an Advisor through Zoom can be found here https://queensu.ca/artsci/undergraduate/student-services/advising/advising-services.

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,

Dorit Naaman
Associate Dean (Academic)
