I am in my first semester and have no academic standing yet.

I am in good academic standing.

I am on probation, but my cumulative GPA is 2.0 or higher.

I expect to be in good academic standing after this semester.

I may be suspended after this semester.

Please list the name and email address of your academic advisor.

What is the reason you are requesting to take a reduced course load?

I have fewer than a full load of courses to take in my final semester to complete my program.

I am experiencing difficulties in my first semester due to English language or other related difficulties.

My U.S. doctor recommends changes to my enrollment due to a medical condition or illness and I will upload that documentation.

For your final semester RCL, please list the courses you will take, and note which are face-to-face or hybrid courses.

Which semester will be your final semester of coursework?

Please share any relevant details, or come in to discuss these with Lucy. These help in making a determination.

For medical RCL: Please upload your medical doctor's recommendation on business letterhead, specifying the number of credits recommended and the period of time requested for the RCL (no more than 1 semester). The doctor may use the medical RCL form instead of a letter, available in the Handbook.
