Submit an Academic Petition or Appeal

New Information: Beginning around 2023, I began experiencing persistent symptoms of depression and anxiety, which gradually worsened over time. These symptoms significantly impaired my ability to focus, manage time, and stay motivated—core functions required for academic success. Despite my efforts to stay on track, I found myself increasingly overwhelmed, and my academic performance declined as a result.

Initially, I sought help through online counselling sessions with mental health professionals. At that stage, my symptoms were assessed as manageable without medication, and I tried to continue my studies with the support of these sessions. However, due to the absence of formal diagnosis documentation from a recognized institution, I was unable to provide adequate proof of my condition during earlier academic assessments.

Recently, I underwent an official psychiatric evaluation at Beijing Anding Hospital, a well-established mental health institution. I have now received a formal diagnosis, and I am submitting the official documentation along with this petition. The medical evaluation confirms that my academic struggles are linked to clinically recognized mental health conditions.

At present, my condition is being actively managed. I have taken meaningful steps toward recovery and continue to follow professional recommendations to maintain stability. My current symptoms are under better control, and I am confident that they will not pose a significant barrier to my future academic performance. I believe that with the appropriate academic support and a regular course load, I will be able to improve my GPA and return to a productive academic path.

I respectfully ask that this statement and the attached documentation be considered as part of my petition, and I sincerely hope for the opportunity to continue my studies without the restriction on credit load.
