it reinstated based on Extenuating Circumstances, a student with a disability applied for, but did not receive, timely reasonable
accommodation, academic or progress improvement, or earning 100 or more MJC degree-applicable semester units. If the
request is granted, it does not guarantee enrollment in specic courses.
