Petition Letter
To whom it may concern,
I am writing to request to drop courses past the course drop date.
I am currently enrolled in second year. Through my first year and more dramatically in my second year I struggled to maintain my course load.
This fall I began formal testing to determine a suspected learning disability. On November 10th, I received a diagnosis of ADHD. (Please see the attached letter from Dr. Currie explaining the diagnosis.)
Throughout this term I attempted and was hopeful that I could salvage my courses and get on top of my work but failed to do so and, as a result, ended up missing the course drop deadline.
I am requesting to drop:
HIST 246
RELS 250
In consultation with my doctor, I will be investigating in the coming weeks medication and coaching in the coming months to help me learn how to be successful with this condition.
I plan on taking a reduced course load next term and my expectation is that by my third year I will be back on track, I look forward to successfully completing my degree at Queens.
Please let me know if you need any further information.
Thank you for your consideration,
Michael Selby
