Academic Plan
If my appeal is granted, I plan on majoring in psychology. I would like to start off by assisting students to better understand how to deal with mental health issues. In order to do this, I would spend my free-time volunteering on campus. However, my ultimate goal is to one day have my own clinic. I view this as an opportunity to guide students/clients through the dark times that I once faced when I was in their shoes . Academically, I plan to start off taking a light course load. I plan to start out with four courses. During the summer, I have planned to take online summer classes to be sure I stay on track all year long. My time-management skills are my biggest priority. In the future, I would like to plan ahead and set ample time to work on my upcoming assignments. I will also set time aside for myself so that I can take breaks and avoid overworking myself. In the past, I did not take the best care of myself so self-care will be another priority. I have been going to the gym three times a week. Going to the gym has tremendously helped me to cope better with my mental health. I also plan on continuing to manage my diet to ensure that I am in the best possible physical shape. I have been going to therapy for the last 5 months. I plan on continuing therapy on a weekly basis to maintain my mental health.
