Dear Nikta Ahmadi-Yazdi:

I was sorry to read of the family-related extenuating circumstances that lead you to be unable to complete your studies during the Summer 2020 term as well as the confusion you experienced regarding dropping this course in SOLUS. I have carefully considered your appeal to drop PHAR 380 (S 2020) past the academic deadline and after reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

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 the Important Dates section on the Arts and Science web page and ensure that courses are dropped on SOLUS successfully before the posted drop deadline.

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.

Best of luck in your continued degree progression.

Yours sincerely,

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