Petition Letter

Petition Letter: Dear ASSOCIATE DEAN,

I am writing to appeal for taking 6 units on ILOP in the winter term. I already taking 6 units at UIBE on ILOP in the fall term.

I am planning to graduate in May but I am short of 12 elective units so I took 2 courses at UIBE and planing take 2 courses at Fontbonne Univerisity, they provide online courses and the course starting from Dec.21 to Jan8 which the time is suitable for me. I finish all my final exams on Dec.21.In that way, I only need to take 4 courses in the winter term that allows me to have more time to focus on my econ major course. For the winter term, I am taking 2 of the 400-level econ major courses and hoping to enroll in the econ seminar course which has a heavy workload and it is difficult. Therefore, I want to finish 2 elective courses in the Christmas holiday that I can have a lighter workload in winter term.

Academic Plan

Academic Plan: I am fourth year Econ major student, I am planning to graduate in May. I have talked to academic advisor Daralyn Auld, she told me that I am short of 12 units and 3 units of Econ seminar courses. I am hoping to graduate on time and I work really hard on that.

In the past three years, I had a hard time and I am lost and confused. The first year at Queens is my first time to go abroad. I don't know how to make friends in Canada, I don't know about my future. I can not focus on academic, my cum GPA is low. I was depressed for a very long time. Now, I really figure out what I want to do, I want to be a teacher to help students who also suffer from mental problems or family problems. I really want to apply for consecutive education after graduation.
