Petition Letter
Petition Letter: I had a hold on Solus that prevented me from early enrolment that was not supposed to be there. I tried to contact enrolment services for help but they did not get back to me until after the deadline for enrolment. I also contacted arts & science online and they could not help me until the hold was lifted. However, as the hold was not lifted on time they directed me to make an appeal for late enrolment.
I would also like to point out that I tried calling enrolment services but my call could not go through as I am not in Canada.
I was hoping this would be my last semester of my undergraduate degree. I have struggled so much to get here. These past few weeks of waiting for replies and not knowing whether I will be able to finish this fall have been stressful and have triggered my anxiety so much.
I am an older student and all my peers have finished their undergrad. I feel like such a failure and disappointment to my parents who work so hard to put me through school. I really want to make them proud as they have sacrificed so much for me and my siblings.
I would be so grateful if you allow me to graduate this fall.
Please let me know if this would be possible.
Thank you
Paula

Academic Plan
Academic Plan: My goal is to graduate this fall. In the past I have struggled in some courses particularly when it comes to final exams especially if it a time limited exam. My grades throughout the semester are really good but for some reason I struggle with finals.
In the past I have worked while going to school and while some students can handle that I have accepted I cannot. This summer I worked a lot and saved enough to get me by without needing to work this semester.
In order to graduate, school will be my only priority and focus. Because I would be starting late, I will have some catching up to do. Once I have access to my courses, I will go over each timeline and make a note of the due dates. I will also make note of any previous readings as well as future ones. In the past I have been intimidated to ask a professor a question when I do not understand something, now I will push my self to ask anything I am having a hard time understanding.
As I will only have school to focus on I believe I will be able to successfully complete my courses and graduate this fall.
