Dear Dr. Atkinson,
I am appealing my taking courses during the winter 2022 semester at Queen??s University. I am hoping to spend the term abroad on a letter of permission. I previously applied to exchange through Queens?? bilateral exchange program, however, was not granted a spot at one of my top institutions. Therefore, I am still wishing to have the opportunity to study internationally during my undergraduate experience as I believe it will have tremendous academic benefits for me.
I have already been admitted to study sociology, history and geography courses at Trinity College Dublin in Ireland and will soon apply to the University of Edinburgh. Should I choose to study at either institution, due to their world-renowned rankings and prestige, I believe they will sufficiently match the academic rigour that Queen??s has to offer. Furthermore, I will be able to study sociology from a global perspective, gaining insights towards issues such as social patterns, inequality, race, and class structure from a unique lens. Moreover, having the opportunity to study abroad in a new place with a new culture would allow me to experience growth not only academically but socially as well, pushing me outside of my comfort zone that I have built here at Queen??s.
Being granted to study abroad for the winter semester of 2022 would be a once in a lifetime opportunity that I would take full advantage of, bringing back new perspectives to my studies at Queen??s, allowing me to contribute to my fourth-year courses at a deeper level. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Anna Eberlee

Dear Dr. Atkinson,
I have received written support for my appeal from the faculty of Arts and Sciences through the Sociology Undergraduate coordinator, Thomas Abrams. I have flexibility within my major to enroll in Sociology option courses so long as they are above the 200-level and can be pre-approved by the Sociology department to count towards my degree requirements. This far, I have completed the 18.0 units of Core Sociology courses and received the necessary letter grade and have completed 18.0 out of my 42.0 SOCY option courses. Should I be able to go on exchange, I plan to take the equivalent of at least 6.0 units of sociology courses, leaving, 18.0 for my fourth year. This will allow me to complete my final year of studies at Queen??s University with ease. As a member of the concurrent education program, I have been granted permission from my academic advisor Taylor Liggett to drop my concurrent education courses for the remainder of third year and instead take both PROF-310 and PRAC-310 during my fourth year of studies.
