Academic Plan
Academic Plan:
Areas of concern: I do not find our academic demands too high to keep up, nor do I find my current classwork onerous. The primary issue I had regarding this late-add appeal has something to do with my personal circumstances.
I had anxiety going on from November to today.
Resources and support system I built after I started to seek help on 20th of September:
Student Wellness Center:1. Appointments with Akilli, the advisor and practitioner. 2. Earliest psychiatrist's appointment from Wellness Center on October 20th to reexamine and make sure I am ok
Academic Advisor:1. Artsci advisor to plan and tell me the direction of the next steps.
2. I found Kim Gudlauski, music academic advisor to contact professors in three classes so that I could catch up.
3. I found Cynthia, English department's program assistant to consult my English courses.
Reestablish my study habits and routine: I had an appointment with SASS to discuss strategies to catch things up while keep up with the current classes. And I will also be in contact with them after a week to see how things are progressing.
Professors' help: Professors from MUSC210, MUSC156, MUSC255 have gotten my message and have provided me with support. I received documents and materials to catch up early and am going to their classes.
Peer's help: Cameron McNeil, close friend of mine. He has been available to act as a part of my support network and help me catch up in my classes (he is also in MUSC 210). Emotionally he has also been through similar experience, so he is able to support me emotionally.
Course load and catching things up: 1. I took the advice from Kim that I will only be having three music classes this term. Then, depends on how well I do this term, we will then further discuss the classes on winter term. 2. After discussing with Artsci advisor, preparing for future summer courses is also an important step for me to catch up for my classes.
