Petition Letter
Dear Associate Dean,
I hope this finds you well. Per my previous academic petitions, I would like to follow up and drop the following classes: PHAR 380, HLTH 102, and EMPR 220. I understand that there has been an excessive delay between the time the course began and now. However, I have been struggling mentally and physically over the last year due to my ongoing immigration issues and lack of support. In the summer of 2023, I was kicked out of my Aunt and grandparents' house and forced to live out of my car until I could find accommodations.
Furthermore, the depressive situation continued into the fall of 2023, when I was unable to pass the majority of my classes because I was working two jobs to secure housing. The issue stems from my previous academic petition/the paperwork submitted for those petitions regarding immigration and deaths in my family. I am unsure of what else is needed, but I would like to still plead my case in hopes of getting these marks removed. I eventually found housing accommodations in late October and tried to catch up and submit as much work as possible but could not pass.
If you need anything else, please do not hesitate to reach out. Also, I would like to appeal last semester's grades. However, I would like to know if I can do so under these circumstances.
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to read my application.
All the best,
Ayesha
