Academic Plan
Strategies for Success:
I plan on completing my Concurrent Education degree by the end of the 2018-2019 academic year with the grades that satisfy my expectations. I do not think, nor does my doctor, that I can achieve this by going back to Queen's for the academic year of 2017-2018. It is much too soon and I need to be close to my doctor, my family and other sources of support. Additionally, as stated in my appeal letter, living in Kingston has only contributed negatively to my circumstances. However, I expect that by the end of that academic year, I will be well-prepared for a year at Queen's with less strict plans to continue therapy in Kingston. I am willing to consider going back for my fifth year because I am still eligible at that time to complete my BEd in one year as opposed to two. Additionally, obtaining my teaching degree, particularly Con-Ed, is still very important to me.
I would like to attend uOttawa or Carleton starting September 2017 and I will likely take four courses per term instead of five. Leftover courses would be done in the summer. I have taken a look at the courses I am expected to complete at Queen's and found similar ones at uOttawa and Carleton. Should it be too late to attempt to start school in September of 2017, I will look into any other appeals I can pursue to make it happen. Should that still not work, I will start in the winter and see if I am still eligible for final year in the winter of 2018-2019 or September 2019.
While completing my fourth year in Ottawa, I will also continue taking my medication and attending psychotherapy.
