Petition Letter
Petition Letter: To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to respectfully request late enrollment in ENIN 240 – Introduction to Innovation and Entrepreneurship for the Summer Term. I understand that I missed the official enrollment deadline and take full responsibility for this oversight.
Although I do not have extenuating circumstances to report, I am making this request based on my academic goals. I am working toward improving my GPA in preparation for applying to Teachers College after completing my undergraduate degree. ENIN 240 offers valuable content that supports both my academic and professional development, and enrolling in this course would be an important step in strengthening my transcript.
If approved, I am committed to catching up on any missed material and meeting all course expectations. I am prepared to work closely with the instructor to ensure I transition into the course smoothly and without disruption.
Thank you for considering my petition. I appreciate your time and hope for a favourable outcome.
Sincerely,
Maia Swemmer
