Course: ECON 222

Year: 2024
Category: Drop a course after the academic deadline

Dear Julian van den Driessche:

I have carefully considered your petition to drop ECON 222 (F24) past the academic deadline. After reviewing your file, I have decided to grant your request.

I have granted this request as I understand that you thought this course had been dropped prior to the academic deadline. Your grade in this course will be replaced with a DR notation on your transcript.

Going forward, I suggest that you make every effort to check your schedule in SOLUS as well as to inform yourself of the academic regulations concerning deadlines as they are outlined in the "Important Dates" section on the Arts and Science web page and ensure that courses are dropped on SOLUS successfully before the posted drop 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.
Associate Dean (Academic)
