Submission Number: 11643
Decision Date: April 29, 2024
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: William Grimes
Student Email: 19wig@queensu.ca

Course: PHIL 373
Term: Fall
Year: 2023
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline

Dear Will,

I have carefully considered your petition to drop PHIL 373 (W24) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

Your grade in this course will be replaced with a DR notation on your transcript.

I have granted this request due to the timeline of extenuating circumstances as confirmed within the documentation that you supplied. Going forward, academic impacts should be managed proactively by utilizing options such as academic consideration. A student can request short term academic consideration if they need more time to complete a component or had to miss a class as a result of an illness or other personal circumstance. Here is the link for information about that process: queensu.ca/artsci/undergrad-students/student-services/academic-consideration-for-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)
