Petition Letter
Petition Letter: Dear Associate Dean,
My name is Chenchen Sun, and my student number is 20148072. I am writing to formally petition for the revocation of the decision to reject my Honours degree status (major in Mathematics, minor in Physics) due to a grade reassessment in PHYS 317 from the Winter 2024 term.
During the summer of 2024, I was notified that I was not permitted to proceed to an Honours degree because my cumulative GPA was below 1.90. At that time, this decision appeared to be appropriate based on the information available. However, it was later determined that a grade calculation issue in PHYS 317 directly affected my GPA and contributed to this situation.
Specifically, my final project grade in PHYS 317 was not included in the original evaluation. After discussing this with the course instructor, they kindly reviewed the situation and identified that the omission was related to the processing of my academic consideration approval. The instructor subsequently updated my grade and submitted the adjustment under

Academic Plan
Academic Plan: A. Course of Study
I am currently enrolled in the Bachelor of Science General Math program and plan to apply for graduation next semester. While I am eligible to graduate with a General degree based on my current academic standing, I have enrolled in three additional courses to meet the requirements for the Honours degree (major in Mathematics, minor in Physics).
Following the recent grade reassessment in PHYS 317, my cumulative GPA now meets the threshold of 1.90 required for Honours degree status. Completing these three courses will fulfill all academic requirements for the Honours degree. I have carefully reviewed my Academic Advisement Report on SOLUS and consulted with my academic advisor to ensure the accuracy and feasibility of this plan.
B. Workload Expectations
In my final semester, I will take three courses, which will allow me to meet the graduation requirements for the Honours degree program. I greatly value the opportunity to pursue the Honours designation, as it aligns with my academic and career aspirations.
I have thoughtfully planned my schedule to balance my coursework with adequate time for review and assignments. Additionally, I will stay in contact with my academic advisor to ensure my plan remains on track and fully aligned with program requirements.
Conclusion
This plan outlines my intention to fulfill the remaining requirements for this designation and reflects my appreciation for the opportunity to pursue it. I sincerely hope for your kind consideration of my request to reinstate my Honours degree status.
