Petition Letter
Petition Letter: I am writing to please be placed in the Econ 111 class at this time in the year.
I am a second year student who attended the International Bader Centre first year and am therefore still trying to fully understand the course system used here at Queen¿¿s. I am hoping for your help to right a mistake I made when rearranging my courses for next semester. I was enrolled in (and still attend) Econ 110 but decided I only wanted to take this semester and not the next. Using SOLUS, I replaced my next semester Econ 110 class for another class of my choosing. In doing so, I assumed I would still be enrolled in this half of the class. I understand now that I was tired and this was not logical. I am really hoping that I can me moved into the 110 class so that I may write the exam come December. I really have worked hard throughout the course and really hope to earn this credit.
I have spoken to Jenine Ball. She, along with my professor Ian Cromb, have committed to sending you an email ensuring that the course content which I have been learning and exam are identical to that of Econ 111.
Thank you so much for your understanding,
Kyela de Weerdt

Academic Plan
Academic Plan: Because the course content for the fall semester of Econ 110 is identical to that of Econ 111, I will continue to work hard in my understanding of the material. I work extremely hard for this class and even meet with a tutor twice a week. I am proud of the marks I have received thus far and have handed in every assignment and completed every quiz. I truly hope my case is worthy of your generous consideration and that I may write the exam of Econ 111.
