Academic Plan
Although I am not yet registered in my degree plan, I have met with my academic advisor on several occasions to asses which plan is viable for me. I have been told my priority this summer should be to look to take a degree plan that would not put me in the struggle that I had when I was trying to go for the Economic Plan
I’ve struggled with my health situation but since I’ve gone through procedures and routine blood work, my doctor has been able to gather al the information needed to address this and has given me several medications that has not only made me feel better physically, but mentally as well that help me be able to finish my education successfully.
Academically, I attended lectures, office hours, and tried my absolute best to complete assignments and exams but I kept finding it difficult. I realized time management is a serious issue for me when looking at my study habits and by attending workshops and consulting with learning strategists at Queen’s, I hope to be able to build a schedule that splits my studying time on each course much more effectively. In addition, I will continue to attend office hours on the regular while also not shy away from contacting my professors or TAs in the event I find the material difficult to understand.
I’m also looking to book a Career Counseling appointment to see if they can also help me take the right courses that fit the best to my abilities while also discussing if a specific plan and this program is best for me.
Visiting the Academic Consideration Request Portal may also be worth trying as my health situation may make me quality for some kind of consideration.
Thankfully, I have not encountered any financial struggles as of this moment due to my mom’s office, but if any situation arises, I will consult with Student Awards if I might need financial aid in the future
So far, the sessions with my academic advisor have been very helpful for me these past few years and continue with them will be very beneficial in the long term. The sessions have helped me understand the next necessary steps to take when considering a plan, and learn the resources available in the school like tutoring services where I can learn strategies that helps me improve in my courses. I have also spoken with my advisor about my health situation where I have been told if taking classes online is better for me and whether I should think about a lighter course load. My goal right now is to stick to a full-time course load, find the best available plan for me, and use any resources available at the school to help me develop stronger study habits for me to be successful at Queen’s.
