Academic Plan
As stated above, throughout my studies here at Queen??s I have been a diligent and hardworking student who has always met deadlines, but the Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted my study plan beyond my control. I have previously taken a course with Professor Kukreja and would be more than happy to reach out to discuss my situation, as well as the steps that I am willing to take to accommodate for lost time. I am an experienced student and understand the workload for these given courses and would make myself available to take any tests or quizzes to be updated with my fellow peers. Moreover, I would also like to make the case that I am only four days outside of the deadline, placing me at relatively the same position had I been admitted on the 20th of September. I am able to devote my entire time to these courses, as I am already in a comfortable position with my other courses, being well ahead, as it is only three courses that I am currently enrolled in. My academic transcript can attest to my ability to take a full course load, and be able to juggle multiple deadlines. I am very proactive student and discussed this issue with law admissions at Queen's U who have directed me to this option as the best alternative given the circumstances. Furthermore, I would be able to join study groups, as I already know students within these courses who would be able to direct me to the right resources and complete readings faster. As I have already stated I am willing to do anything required from my professors to demonstrate that I have the ability enrol in these courses despite it being at a later date. My academic and career goals can only be completed by taking these two extra courses, as this is the only option available to me in order to move ahead with my career plan. Obtaining a full course load in sequential terms of my degree is essential to law school admissions. This would be a huge setback for me is the appeal is not waived, as I would be required to take a sixth year in order to meet admission requirements for law schools, effectively having to spend more time than necessary. Again thank you so much for taking the time to hear my appeal and I look forward to hearing from the Associate Dean.
