Dear Keegan Michels:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop GPHY 101 and PHIL 151 (F 2020) past the academic deadline and after reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

I recognize that you had submitted this request shortly after the deadline to drop these courses had passed and have granted this appeal as this was your first term at Queen€™s. Going forward, I am confident that 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.

Yours sincerely,

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