3. Medical reasons will require an original note from your doctor stating you were under their care during the time of your absences, the nature of your illness, and the fact that this prohibited you from completing the semester. This letter cannot be faxed and must be sent directly from your doctor’s office to the Dean of Students’ office.
4. Personal reasons will require documentation that will support your reasons. i.e. court papers, death certificates, etc.
5. Supply any additional documentation that you feel will support your case.
