Petition Letter
Good morning,
I am requesting to add EMPR 230 after the academic deadline and plan to drop HIST 214.
The reason I would like to enroll in EMPR 230 is that it is applicable to my role here at Queen's. We are currently in the hiring phase for a position that will support my role. We also conduct interviews throughout November for students who wish to go on exchange the following year. I believe this course will give me skills to use in both situations.
Unfortunately, I was not aware that I would be able to take this course when I was selecting courses for the summer, as I thought the courses were meant for a business student and not open to students outside of a business program. A colleague told me about the course and how valuable she was finding it. I would have added the course during enrollment otherwise. During my studies, I have never requested a course to be added late, or appealed, so I take this process very seriously and would not go through this process if I didn't feel the course would be of great value.
I do plan to drop HIST 214 as this would replace that course - I find the course very interesting and hope to take the course at a later date.
My colleague that is enrolled in EMPR 230 has agreed to work with me to catch up on the materials I have missed so far, and as I mentioned to Professor Fisk in my email, I am committed to working on this material to catch up. I do not expect to have any special treatment or consideration to my deliverables, as I take full responsibility that it is up to me to meet all course requirements. I am using a study plan and assignment plan to keep me on track with all assignments this semester and have found this to be a useful tool for me, and all my deliverables this semester have been completed early when possible, and on time for those that have restrictions (quizzes).
I thank you in advance for your consideration.
Take care,
Jacoba
