Dear Siobhan Layne:

I have carefully considered your petition to drop PHGY 215 and STAT 263 (F24) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

I have granted this request due to the timeline and severity of extenuating circumstances as confirmed within the documentation you supplied. Your final grades will be replaced with a DR notation on your transcript.

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.

With sincere condolences,

Dorit Naaman, PhD
Associate Dean (Academic)
