Dear Ms. Beronio:

As requested, I have carefully reconsidered your appeal to drop HLTH 101 (F 2013), HLTH 101 (F 2014), BIOL 111 (F 2014), GNDS 125 (W 2014) and STAT 263 (W 2015) past the academic deadline as well as receive Credit standing in PSYC 100B (W 2014) and HLTH 230 (F 2014). After reviewing your file with the additional documentation provided, I have decided to change my original decision and grant your request. You may now resume your studies at Queen's University.

As a result of this decision, the Academic Probation ruling from May 2014 will be removed from your transcript as your GPA from the 2013/14 academic year is now above 1.60. Further, the Required to Withdraw for One Year ruling from May 2015 will also be removed from your transcript as it now no longer applies (you have not attempted enough courses from the past academic year to be assessed for a formal ruling). Your GPA is currently 1.55 and you are eligible to return to your studies next year.

Upon returning to a regular course of study it is your responsibility to choose courses carefully, seek out the advice necessary to improve your academic performance, and maintain a GPA consistent with the requirements for successful completion of your plan. I hope that you will take advantage of the variety of support services available to you at Queen's. Academic counselling is available through an advisor in the Faculty of Arts and Science Student Services Office (main floor Dunning Hall, phone 533-2470) or through your plan department. The Learning Commons in Stauffer Library also provides a range of services, including workshops designed to improve study skills and develop strategies for meeting the demands of academic life. Further, the Health, Counselling and Disabilities Centre located in the LaSalle Building at 146 Stuart Street (613-533-2506) offers personal and academic counselling free of charge to all Queen's students, as well as individual consultation to aid in coping with difficulties of a more personal nature.

If you have any questions about this decision, please feel free to contact the Faculty Office for advice or assistance. I wish you success in your future studies.

Yours sincerely,

Johanne Bénard, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
