Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline

Dear Emma Cooper,

I have carefully considered your petition to drop ARTH 374 (F22) after the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

I have granted this request based on the circumstances outlined in your petition letter as well as the information supplied by your Queen??s Student Accessibility Services (QSAS) Advisor in your documentation. Going forward, I suggest that you connect with your QSAS Advisor as soon as possible if you do not receive the appropriate accommodations as listed in your Letter of Accommodation.

I also want to remind you that it is the student??s responsibility to assess their progress in their courses in week 7 of the term. If you have fallen behind in a course or find the material too difficult, you should drop the course by week 8 of term. 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.

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.

Sincerely,

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