Petition Letter
Petition Letter: To whom may concern,
My name is Yijing Yue, and I am a fourth-year student in Department of Chemistry. I am appealing to drop CHEM 322 and CHEM 326 (Winter, 2021).
During the past two semesters, I was experiencing mental health problems and it didn¿¿t get better as my expectation. I tried to control myself and avoided the influence on my academic behavior, but I failed. For these two courses, I failed to submit all the assignments and tests. In this way, I can finish the works from the other three courses and didn¿¿t end up with five ¿¿F¿ on my transcript.
The reason why I am appealing now is because I just realized that this is a big problem and cannot solve by myself. Therefore, it is the first time that I get to know that it is possible to drop the courses instead of leaving them as an ¿¿F¿ on my transcript. Moreover, I thought that this condition would get better and I would be able to finish all the works at the beginning of this semester. This thought misled myself and I missed all the deadlines for modifying my course schedule.
If this appeal is approved, I wish to take these two courses in the next Winter semester with my fourth-year courses. Therefore, I will have sometime to heal my mental problems and be ready for the following challenges. Based on my past experience, I failed to finish the work for five courses in last semester and was able to finish the work for three courses in this semester. Therefore, I am hoping that I will be ready after this summer vacation I am also connected with Student Wellness Center and looking for consultations and suggestions from them to solve my mental problems.
Please let me know if there is anything else that you wish to know or get from me.
Sincerely,
Yijing
