Academic Plan
c. Future plan
During my time off, I worked for Arterra Wines Canada as a Marketing Coordinator for Inniskillin Wines. I am currently studying for my Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) Level 3 in Wines exam and intend to complete the Level 4 Diploma next year.
Working has helped me discover my passion (Branding and Wine Marketing) and the career path I want to take in life, and acquiring a degree is on the top of that list. I have also gained confidence and ways to cope with my anxiety, communication, and time management skills. Most importantly, that it is ok to ask for help when you need it.
If granted the opportunity to return to my studies, I would like to change programs and earn an online General Bachelor of Arts English Degree to balance my studies while maintaining my work, WSET, and family life. Hopefully, I can transfer credits I have already successfully acquired to help with the course load. Studying online will also help with my panic attacks because in-person presentations or seminars trigger them. Working throughout COVID, I have developed methods to handle Zoom or Microsoft Team calls. I am also interested in pursuing the Smith Certificate in Business to broaden my career options upon graduation.
I will also make regular appointments with the Academic Advising Team and prospective professors and take advantage of the Student Wellness Services. I have saved up 20,000 from work to pay off some of my overdue student fees. I am not sure if I am eligible for a financial appeal for a tuition fee refund, but I will create a payment plan with Financial Services, with support from my Father.
Thank you for giving me this opportunity to explain my circumstances and taking the time to read and consider my request. I also want to thank your Academic Advising Team, who helped me through this difficult time and provided me with helpful resources and referrals. I look forward to your response.
Sincerely,
Aimee Jones
