Dear Tyler:

I was sorry to read of the circumstances outlined in your petition letter and I have carefully reviewed your request to change the grade you received in ECON 351 (W 2023) to Aegrotat standing. After careful consideration of the documentation you submitted, and the information supplied by the instructor about the learning outcomes achieved and course deliverables completed, I have decided to grant your petition.

The instructor has submitted a pro-rated replacement grade based on the work you have completed as follows:

ECON 351 (W 2023) will appear on your transcript with a grade of D+ along with the notation ??Aegrotat: estimated grade?.

I encourage you to continue to seek support from your health care team and consider registering with QSAS next year if you will require accommodations to help you manage both your health and academics.

Best of luck in your recovery this summer.

Yours sincerely,


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