Dear Ms. Walsh:

I have carefully considered your request to have your appeal heard after the 21-day timeline for submission, and have decided, based on the circumstances you refer to in your letter of appeal, to waive the timeline and grant your appeal to drop PSYC 235, PSYC 370 and PSYC 397 (S 2014) past the academic deadline.

If you wish to appeal for a refund of the tuition fees paid for these courses, you may complete and submit this form to the Office of the University Registrar: http://www.queensu.ca/registrar/aboutus/forms/Tuition_Fee_Amendment_Appeal_Form.pdf Any questions about this process, may be directed to their office (contact information can be found on the form).

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)
