Petition Letter
Petition Letter: Hello, My name is Brandon St.Pierre, and my Student Number is: 20060621.
For a while now, I have been going through a lot of struggles and I have been trying to cope with them while studying at school. I have talked to many academic advisors, mental health counselors, friends, and family who have helped me along the way. I have considered completely dropping out to deal with my mental health and other aspects of my life and then come back better, but through many talks, I have decided to stay. I understand that the drop date was the 5th, and I tried to drop it as the day was coming to an end, however, my wifi dropped for about 30 minutes until I could get it back with multiple restarts...perfect timing for all of this to happen...I then sent an email with urgency seeing if anything could be done to resolve my problem, however after I got no response after a day of waiting I found that I could request an appeal. I really need to drop these courses and take a semester off and really improve my mental health and issues. I hope you can understand the position I am coming from, and that even though I missed the deadline, you can look to consider by seeing that I tried to do it on the date it was due.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope we can work together to resolve this issue.
