Petition Letter
Petition Letter: To whom it may concern,
As a first year student not understanding academic enrolment procedures I made a grave mistake and my intention was not to drop a class, but to switch my lab section to another day. I made an attempt to switch my ANAT 100 lab day from Wednesdays (2:30-4:30) to Thursdays (10:30-12:30) through Solus. I was notified by solus that I could not switch lab section because I was already enrolled in another section of the same course. In problem solving not being switch the class I dropped the class so I could re enrol in the preferred section. I have now left myself not enrolled in a class that I very much would like to take.
In recognizing that I did not have authorization to enrol I immediately went to SASS, my advisor suggested to follow this process for an opportunity to re enrol in this class.
I greatly appreciate your consideration on this matter,
Avery Shaw

Academic Plan
Academic Plan: My academic plan is to major in psychology and minor in biology, this anatomy course would be a great asset for understanding the human body and it creates an opportunity to explore other pathways in the future if I decide to do so. This is a subject matter that I am interested in which will ensure academic success in the course when granted the opportunity to re enrol.
