Petition Letter
Petition to Enrol in PHIL 151 (Late course add)
I am writing to request permission to enrol into PHIL 151 for the May-June summer session. I am a recent transfer student at Queens University, and I attended Queens this past fall and winter semesters. I also decided to switch my major from Biology to Philosophy in my third year of undergrad. In addition to this, due to some mental health issues over this past year, I was only able to take three courses per term. Due to switching my major so late in my academic career, as well as taking a reduced course load, I will be taking a fifth year. Therefore, in order to finish all of my required courses in time, I will have to take summer courses each summer until my graduation. I registered into PHIL 151 on the waitlist before the deadline of May 10, however I did not get accepted. If there is any way I would still be able to be enrolled it would be greatly appreciated, as I am behind on my course requirements and am hoping to graduate within five years. Due to my mental health difficulties and reduced course load over this past year, taking this course over the summer would be greatly beneficial. As I am only able to handle taking a few courses at a time right now. Professor Smith has agreed to let me into the course. Thank you so much for considering my petition.
