Dear Hannah Thompson:

I was sorry to have read in your letter of appeal the challenging circumstances you experienced this past year. No doubt they has impacted your studies so I have decided to grant your appeal to drop SOCY 122 and PSYC 100 (FW 2018/19) past the academic deadline based on those circumstances and the documentation you provided.

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 encourage you to continue to meet with a health care professional and wish you well in your recovery.

Yours sincerely,


Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
