Dear Mr. Raps:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop GRMN 101 (F 2014), PHIL 204, PHIL 256, PHIL 257 and HIST 124B (W 2015) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request. As a result of this decision, your academic record will be reassessed and the €œRequired to Withdraw for One Year€ ruling will be removed. You may resume your studies this fall.

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.

Upon returning to a regular course of study it is your responsibility to choose courses carefully, monitor the drop deadlines 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 (F200 Mackintosh-Corry 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.

I wish you success in your future studies.

Yours sincerely,

Sue Blake
Assistant Dean (Studies)
