Petition Letter
To the Associate Dean (Studies):
I am appealing for permission to study abroad independently at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem on a Letter of Permission for the winter semester of my 3rd year of undergraduate studies (the Winter 2015 semester).
I believe studying abroad will allow me to widen my outlook. The Rothberg International School at the Hebrew University offers a broad range of courses, many of which are perfectly suited to my interests as well as my academic plan at Queen's. The courses will complement my background in psychology and allow me to expand on my Hebrew skills, while also enabling me to learn about topics unique to the region.
I am aware of the degree requirements of my PSYC-M-BAH plan, and after speaking with the undergraduate chair of psychology at Queen's, Prof. Atkinson, I have verified that I am on track to finish my plan upon my return to Queen's in my 4th year (regardless of whether or not I take transferrable upper year psychology courses while abroad). I have received Prof. Atkinson's support to study abroad at the Hebrew University.
I am confident that I will be able to succeed while studying abroad; my academic achievements thus far have given me confidence in my abilities, and I look forward to expanding my knowledge.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Jenna Glicksman
