Petition Letter

Petition Letter: To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Jeremy Geisler I am in fourth year, I am writing this appeal to add HIST 200 (India and the World) to my fall term schedule for the 2019 year. I acknowledged that it is last and past the date of add/drop, I am committed to catching up with the rest of the class for the content that I have missed. I have emailed professor Aditi and has told me that she would be happy for me to switch add the course. The reason for adding this course is I am in the geography program in my final year and I am looking to complete the Urban Planning Certificate which requires me to have completed a certain number of course. With the addition of HIST 200 to my fall term, I will be able to complete my undergraduate degree and the Certificate.

Thanks

Jeremy

Academic Plan

Academic Plan: The focus of my studies in Geography and Urban planning. I am trying to add HIST 200 to my fall term plan with the goal of having a better understating of India and its history. I believe that India will become an even greater and more important country in the world in the coming years. With its growing population, I believe that it will require geographers and urban planners to design and adapt urban cities to accommodate the continued growth.

I fully understand that I am adding this course late and will require myself to get caught up with the rest of the class for the information that I have missed. My goal is to get fully caught up with the course within five days of adding the course. This will require me to spend more time on this course than my other course. I have already planned for this by moving ahead in my other courses to allow me to spend more time on HIST 200. I believe that this plan will allow me to have great success in this course as well as in my other courses.
