Dear Ms. D€™Amico:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop ASTR 101 (F 2016) past the academic deadline as well as receive Credit standing in MUSC 171 (F 2016) and MUSC 102 (W 2017) and Aegrotat standing in PHIL 157 (F 2016) and SOCY 122 (FW 2016/17). After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

Your grades in PHIL 157 and SOCY 122 will appear on your transcript as follows along with the notation €œAegrotat: estimated grade€:

PHIL 157 B €œAegrotat: estimated grade€
SOCY 122 CR €œAegrotat: estimated grade€

We also consulted Dr. Baba and asked to waive the late penalties. Your final grade in GNDS 125 has been recalculated and is now showing on your transcript as B+.

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,

Sue Blake
Assistant Dean (Studies)
