Dear Savannah Ford:
I have carefully considered your petition to waive the petition deadline related to the 2022 Fall term. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.
I have granted this request as the documentation that you supplied suggests the need for ongoing accommodation related to a newly diagnosed disability. I will also allow you to drop STAT 263 (F22) without having to submit a subsequent petition.
Your grade in this course will be replaced with a DR notation on your transcript.
Going forward, would suggest that you consider registering with Queen’s Student Accessibility Services (QSAS) if you have not done so already, so that you obtain ongoing support from an Accessibility Advisor who can help manage the ongoing impacts of your health on your academics.
Also, it is the student’s responsibility to pause and evaluate the impact of extenuating circumstances on their classes before the drop deadline. If they have fallen behind in a course or find the material too difficult, they should drop the course by the deadline. 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.
