  • Summarize the circumstances which you believe impacted your academic success this year. Include supporting documentation as necessary (e.g., if your extenuating circumstances were medical, include doctors’ notes or other official medical documentation).

    • The level of detail that you provide regarding any medical or personal circumstances is up to you. Be sure that you are comfortable with the amount of detail that you are providing.
    • Once a decision has been made on your appeal, you will not be able to submit additional information or documentation unless it refers to a situation or condition that was unknown to you at the time of your original appeal (e.g., a new medical diagnosis).

    You must submit your complete appeal in one submission. This means that all of the circumstances that you would like to be considered with all supporting documentation are included in this PDF.

    • We recognize that in some cases, it can take time to obtain supporting documentation. If this applies to you, please select the option on the form that indicates documentation is pending. Note that your appeal will not be evaluated until your supporting documentation is received.

  • A key component to your appeal is a plan outlining the steps that you will take in future to ensure your personal wellbeing and academic success. Rather than focus exclusively on what impacted you during this past year, it is important that you consider how you intend to do well moving forward.

    • What resources and services will you use?
    • What actions will you take?

    You may want to list the courses you plan to take in the next winter session if your appeal is approved. Include the credit value for each course and the term in which you intend to take it (e.g., COMM 190, 3 credits, Term 1).
