Decision Letter
Appeal Number: 9775
Decision Date: December 13, 2022
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Xiangyu Wang
Student Email: 20xw79@queensu.ca
Course: CHEM 212
Term: Fall
Year: 2022
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline
Dear Xiangyu:
I am sorry to have read in your petition letter that you are struggling in CHEM 212 (F 2022) due to an unexpected short-term illness/issue, and I have carefully considered your request to drop that course past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.
I have granted this petition based on the??documentation provided but going forward, you will be responsible for managing the impact of your circumstances on your academics proactively and not after the fact via the petition process. I encourage you to carefully evaluate your progress in each of your courses prior to the week 8 drop deadline and if you have fallen behind or you are not performing in courses to your satisfaction, you should drop courses by the drop deadline.
Another tool to manage your academics in addition to dropping a course by the drop date 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:

Xiangyu, I strongly encourage you continue to work with a health professional and to proactively manage the impact of your challenges on your academics. You may want to discuss with your counsellor the possibility of registering with QSAS since a QSAS??Advisor??can put into place appropriate accommodations to help you manage the impact of your challenges on your academics, should they continue to impact your studies.??
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 remaining courses.
Sincerely,
Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
