Students who miss academic obligations can submit an Academic Consideration Request (ACR) to their Program Department on medical, compassionate, or religious grounds. Refer to Policy 167 for full details.
For TRSM undergraduate students, ACRs are submitted to the PASS office. The office reviews the documentation, verifies or rejects it, and notifies instructors once verified so they can determine next steps.
