I'm writing this petition to respectfully ask that course COMM504
Academic Plan
Academic Plan: My academic plan is fairly straight forward:
Final year applied economics student:
Required courses:
12.00 units of 400 level ECON course (taken and will be completed by the end of winter)
3.00 units Seminar course (taken and will be completed by the end of fall)
3.00 Applied econometrics (taken and will be completed by the end of winter)
all the above will be completed on time and all I'm looking for are elective to complete my program.
Issue: Most elective courses are taken and/ or are not relevant to my professional aspiration or academic progression.
Solution: crediting COMM504 as and elective would reduce my elective requirement along with contributing towards my professional aspiration as it adds valuable experience to my resume.
Hence, Im humbly requesting faculty of Arts and Science to count this course as an elective as it would make my degree progression much more linear and manageable and it would also reduce a major stress inducing situation overall for me and my family.
sincerely
