Dear Makan:

Your appeal requesting to add HIST 260 (S 2017) past the academic deadline has been granted on behalf of the Associate Dean (Studies). Tuition fees for this course will be charged to your student account once it has been added to your transcript. Your exam centre location has been entered as: 4251 Kingston. Please notify the Continuing and Distance Studies office as soon as possible if you wish to change your exam location.

It is your responsibility to catch up on any late or missed work in the course and the instructor is not obligated to accommodate any student due to late registration. Please ensure that you monitor your academic progress very carefully and drop courses as needed within the academic deadlines. The last day to drop a summer term course is Friday, June 23. Registering late for a course is not considered grounds for appealing to drop after this published deadline.

In addition, I have carefully considered your appeal to drop HIST 124(F/W 2016-17) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

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.

Makan, we wish you success in your Summer term course with hopes you can reach the required 1.6 GPA for graduation.

Best regards,

Sue Blake
Assistance Dean (Studies)
