Your petition has been granted. Your final grade in RELS 131, WRIT 125 (S25), ENGL 237 (F25), ENGL 273 (W26) will be replaced as a DR notation on your transcript once this has been processed by the Office of the University Registrar.

I will also allow you to drop PHIL 259 (F25) after the academic deadline. If you would like to accept this offer please email asc.petitions@queensu.ca within 10 days.

As you continue in your course of study, I strongly suggest that you consider taking no more than 9.0 units per term. I also encourage you to consider connecting with Student Wellness Services, located in Mitchell Hall, for personal support. Information about their services can be found at queensu.ca/studentwellness/.

Going forward, it is your responsibility to pause and evaluate the impact of extenuating circumstances on your coursework prior to the drop deadline of the term. If you fall behind in a course or find the material too difficult, you should drop the course by deadline. The drop deadlines, outlined in the “Important Dates” section on the Faculty of Arts and Science web page, have been established 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.
