Dear Ms. Tang,

I have reviewed your appeal to change the grades you received in CLST 103, MUSC 102 (W 2016) and SOCY 122 (FW 2015-16) to Credit standing. After careful consideration of the documentation you submitted and the information supplied by the instructors about the circumstances surrounding these courses, I have decided to grant your appeal.

Your grades in these courses will appear on your transcript as CR.

I would like to note that this is a lenient decision, acknowledging the challenges you faced adjusting to university in first year, and am granting your appeal on that basis.

Sincerely,



Jill Atkinson, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
