Dear Christina:

I am sorry there was some confusion regarding your registration in BIOL 205 and BIOL 243 (F 2021). The Biology Department pre-enrolled you in those courses, not realizing that you were not returning to Queen??s. I have reviewed your petition to drop those courses late due to the circumstances outlined in your petition letter and after reviewing the circumstances outlined, I will grant your request.

If you wish to appeal for a tuition refund, you must do so through the Registrar??s Office. Here is a link to the Tuition Appeal form:

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)
