Petition Letter
Petition Letter: Hello, I would like to request permission to add a sixth course per fall and winter term. This is something, after much deliberation, I have decided I would like to do. In high school, I condensed four years into three through the taking of extra courses during the normal and summer semesters. While I recognize the workload of university courses are not comparable to that of a high school course, I still believe it is something that would be doable for me. I find I enjoy taking on many things and work best under pressure.
Academic Plan
Academic Plan: I would like to take eighteen credits per fall and winter terms and six credits per summer term between now and April 2024. In doing this, I would be eligible to graduate the BSH-PSYC program in three rather than four years. I have many years of school ahead of me if I would like to go to medical school and come through as a psychiatrist. So, I am very willing to take any chance I can get to condense my time in school. My program only has 72 mandatory credits, leaving good flexibility for planning my schedule in a condensed period. I will be taking science courses in preparation for medical school, but I have many interests that I have no doubt I will be able to find in the available electives.
