Petition Letter

Petition Letter: To whom it may concern,

I am appealing to enroll CLST 102 (Fall 2016). At first I did not plan to take this course, but after I attended one CLST 102 lecture last week. I found myself really interested in classics, so I want to change my plan from major in economics to classics. And if I want to major in classics, CLST 102 is mandatory for the first year.
I thought that 23 September was the deadline to drop classes without financial penalty and had no idea it was also the deadline to add a class. And I also had a time conflict in my course schedule. I spent a long time tried to fix the time conflict problem, and I finally made it today. I have emailed the professor for CLST 102, he was willing to take me in if the department approved my appeal. I know I missed quite a lot classes, but I will work hard for it and try my best to keep up with the course. And I have already started taking the lecture from the beginning of the week 3. So I really hope you can make it possible for me to enroll in this course.
Thank you for reading this. I will be grateful if you can consider my request.


Best Regards,
Jiuli Yan

Academic Plan

Academic Plan: When I chose the course in summer, I followed my parents suggestion and planned to major in Economics. But after taking one lecture from CLST 102 last week, I found myself more interested in Classics. So I decided to major in Classics instead of Economics.
I have got the textbook and the notes for the last two weeks to keep up with the course. And I also started taking the lecture from week 3. Though I missed the class for two weeks, but I have the confidence to conquer this challenge.
Because CLST 102 is mandatory for major in Classics, I really hope you can give me a change to enroll the class. Thank you.
