Procedure for students seeking supporting documentation from the Student Wellness Centre
1. The first step is for the student to meet with an academic advisor to discuss the petition: https://www.trentu.ca/advising/
2. All requests for supporting documentation from the Student Wellness Centre (Accessibility, Counselling, and/or Health Services) are to be sent to swcappeals@trentu.ca .
3. The e-mail must contain the following information:
- The type of appeal being done
- The course code(s) that are being petitioned
- A statement of grounds (why an appeal is being sought)
- A completed consent form authorizing the release of information “from” the Student Wellness Centre indicating which departments (Health, Counselling, Accessibility) the authorization is covering. The release “to” is to identify the Academic Advisor (by name) and the “Committee for Undergraduate Petitions”. Consent forms must be signed by both the student and witness and we only accept actual versus digital signatures. Completed consent forms are to be scanned and attached to the e-mail. Consents can be downloaded at this link: https://www.trentu.ca/wellness/sites/trentu.ca.wellness/files/documents/External_Consent_TSWC_2020.pdf
4. This process can take up to 10 business days and student will be emailed directly, including if clarification is required or if support cannot be extended.
