New Information: I'm appealing for course credit status for chem 321 in winter 2019.
Essentially I'm appealing because my rapid cycling type 2 bipolar disorder which I was finally diagnosed with last fall (and had 6 weeks of severe accommodations for) severely impacted my school performance last semester. I went through phases of not being able to leave my home, as well as manic periods in which my thoughts were confused and I was not at all able to function properly.
The medication for it needs to be upped slowly so was not at all affective throughout that entire period.
All my courses were severely affected though I was able to maintain not severely bad grades in the other three due to a combination of professors giving me extremely flexible assignment hand in dates, group work and fortunate timing for midterms. CHEM 321 was not structured to allow that and also was taught in a fashion that required extremely good classroom attendance. I had difficulty advocating for myself and accessing resources throughout this period.
I've attached a copy of the letter she'd originally prepared for me which I hadn't been able to access until my appointment with her in early November.
