Petition Letter
Dear Academic Review Committee,
I am submitting this petition to request consideration of my academic circumstances and the impact they had on my performance during the academic year.
Throughout the year, I experienced significant difficulties with focus, organization, time management, and maintaining consistent study habits. At the time, I was unaware that these challenges were related to undiagnosed ADHD and Anxiety, which affected my ability to preform academically at the level I knew I was capable of achieving.
Since then, I have received an ADHD diagnosis and have begun treatment. However, I am still in the early stages of the medication adjustment process and have not yet found the dosage that provides the support I need for studying and maintaining focus. Learning about my ADHD has taught me that I may need to implement different strategies and studying methods to understand material that may come easy to some. The courses included in this petition were the ones most significantly affected by my undiagnosed ADHD and Anxiety.
I am requesting consideration of my circumstances and the opportunity to continue progressing In my studies. I am committed to improving my academic standing and have a plan in place to be more successful moving forward, including continuing medical follow up, using academic resources and improving my studying strategies.
I understand the importance of meeting academic requirements, and I take responsibility for my previous performance. I believe that with the appropriate supports now in place and a better understanding of my learning needs, I can demonstrate meaningful academic improvement.
Thank you for taking the time to consider my petition and the circumstances that affected my academic performance.
sincerely,
Maja
