Petition Letter
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to petition for a waiver of the decision to have me withdraw from my studies for the upcoming academic year.
Over the past year, I have made substantial progress in my academic journey, despite experiencing significant challenges in the prior two years. During those years, I faced burnout and a profound lack of motivation, which severely impacted my academic performance. However, the past school year has been markedly different. I have managed to follow through with my classes, showing steady improvement in my coursework and overall engagement.
While I continue to face some struggles, I believe that progress should be viewed as a continuous growth process rather than an overnight transformation. The improvement in my academic performance, though gradual, is a testament to my dedication and resilience. Furthermore, I am currently in the process of requesting to drop a class from my academic record, which I am confident will positively impact my standing.
In addition to my academic progress, I have made significant strides in my health and well-being. I recently underwent a medical check-up and have been working closely with a counsellor to address my feelings of anxiety, stress, and depression. These steps have greatly contributed to my sense of well-being, and for the first time in years, I truly feel like a part of the community and a living, contributing member of society rather than a shell.
During this challenging time, I have also taken on an additional full-time job to support my family financially. Despite the added responsibilities and pressures, I have managed to perform better academically this past year than in previous years. This demonstrates my commitment to my education and my ability to balance multiple responsibilities effectively.
As you may already be aware, I am still balancing the struggles of my citizenship application, which has been a source of constant anxiety due to the lack of communication from the government. The uncertainty and fear of potential outcomes have been looming over me, adding to my stress. Nevertheless, I have persevered and continued to make progress academically.
I have shown proof of growth and a genuine yearning to learn, and I am confident that my feelings of engagement and motivation will only continue to grow. I sincerely believe that allowing me to continue my studies without interruption will enable me to build on the progress I have made and achieve my academic and personal goals.
To further support my efforts, I have reached out to a few people around me who could be willing to provide additional support and vouch for my dedication and progress and will be providing those letters as soon as may be.
I once again kindly request that you reconsider the decision to have me withdraw from my studies for a year. Your understanding and support would mean the world to me as I strive to overcome my challenges and succeed in my academic pursuits.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Aya Louaye
