Dear Ms. Cannella:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop ENGL 340 (F/W 2012-13), PSYC 333 (F 2013), ENGL 321 (F/W 2013-14), PSYC 342 (W 2014), PSYC 355 (W 2014), ENGL 466 (F 2014) and FILM 240 (F 2015) past the academic deadline; receive Credit standing in PSYC 221 (W 2013); and extend the Incomplete in ENGL 200 (F/W 2011-12). After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

You are permitted up to the final day of the Summer term 2017 exam period to complete the course requirements in ENGL 200 and it is your responsibility to contact Professor Straker to make the appropriate arrangements.

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.

Yours sincerely,

Johanne Bénard, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
