Category 3 Requests for Relief
Requests for relief against a decision by the Academic Advising unit (e.g., regarding academic considerations or academic regulations).
Note that requests for relief based on medical or compassionate circumstances should in most cases have been made to your Academic Advising unit at the time of the circumstances. Requests for retroactive relief based on such circumstances and which do not involve the fairness of the course itself should be initiated with your Academic Advising unit and include a clear explanation of why academic considerations were not requested in a timely manner.
If you have been denied academic consideration, you may seek relief from this decision, in writing, from the Associate Dean of your Faculty of registration. This must be done as soon as possible after the decision is communicated, and within three weeks of your notification of the decision by academic advising.
