Dean's Waiver of Progression Requirements

Can I appeal for an exception to the university policy after being RTW?

A student who has been Required to Withdraw from the University and whose academic standing has been jeopardized by serious medical or personal difficulties may appeal for a Dean's Waiver of Progression Requirements.

Refer to the Dean’s Waiver Guide provided by the Office of Ombudsperson( ):

“The Dean’s Waiver process is a safety net provided by the University for students whose academic performance was impacted by a serious health issue or other circumstances beyond the student's control. If your situation was within your control, or not very serious, a waiver is unlikely to succeed.”

The deadline to submit the petition is June 30, or within 7 days after receiving the RTW email notice from the Faculty of Science Academic Advising Office, whichever date is later

Prepare the appeal/petition (or application) by following the Dean's Waiver Form instructions
