Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.

Term: Summer
Year: 2022
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline
Dear Madeleine:
I am sorry to read in your letter of appeal that you have encountered challenges this term and have competing demands due to your employment. I have carefully considered your appeal to drop CLST 205 (S 2022) past the academic deadline and after reviewing your appeal, I have decided to grant your request.
I have exercised some leniency in this decision, acknowledging the challenges you have been facing but going forward, I recommend that you pause and evaluate your progress in your courses prior to the drop deadlines. The drop deadlines, as they have been outlined in the ??Important Dates? section on the Arts and Science web page, have been established by the Faculty of Arts and Science to ensure a fair and equitable treatment of all students at Queen's.
Another tool to manage your academics in addition to dropping a course by the drop deadline is our Academic Consideration protocol. A student can request short term consideration if they need more time to complete an assignment or had to miss a class due to documented extenuating circumstances. Here is the link for information about that process:

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 the continued progression of your degree.
Yours sincerely,
Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
