Petition Letter
Dear Associate Dean (Academic),
My name is Serena Rubino. I am a first-year student. I am writing to you in hopes of picking up another course for this winter term. I was on the waitlist for GNDS 120 but got kicked off of it. I was trying to make up around 6.0 credits due to the fact that I dropped MATH 121. I am aware that GNDS 120 is a 3.0 credit course, but I am planning on taking a summer course to make up for the other half of the 6.0 credits.
I was not doing well in calculus and if I continued in it I would have failed. This mark would have also affected my GPA greatly. After researching GNDS 120 I??ve come to realize that I am very interested in what this course entails and I believe I will excel given the opportunity to participate in the course.
When accessing this course on my SOLUS account I do see that there is still a seat open in the class. I do not understand why I was not accepted into the class and kicked off the waitlist.
I do not want to fall behind in credits, since it might put me in a bad position in the coming years. I want to stay on track and I believe that picking up this course will help with that.
Sincerely,
Serena Rubino
