Dear Fiona,
I have carefully considered your petition to drop DEVS 220 (F23), CISC 325 and CISC 455 (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.
The documentation that you supplied indicates that the impacts of extenuating circumstances began after the drop deadline of each of these terms and I have granted this request due to the timeline and academic impacts of such circumstances.
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.
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)
