Dear Assane Kaba,
I have carefully considered your petition to drop GNDS 125, HIST 211 and LIBS 100 (F23) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.
Your grades in these courses will be replaced with a DR notation on your transcript.
I have granted this request due to the timeline and academic impacts of your extenuating circumstances as confirmed within the documentation that you supplied.
Going forward, it is the student’s responsibility to pause and evaluate the impact of extenuating circumstances on their classes during week 7 of the term. If they have fallen behind in a course or find the material too difficult, they should drop the course by week 8 of term. The drop deadlines, outlined in the “Important Dates” section on the Faculty of Arts and Science web page, have been established to ensure fair and equitable treatment of all students.
Assane, I see that you are currently enrolled in 15.0 units of courses for the upcoming Summer term. This is a very heavy load. Please know that Summer courses are condensed and fast-paced it is not recommended that students take more 6.0 units during that term.
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.
