Petition Letter
Hello,
I am writing you to request special approval for two courses I have taken at York University's Glendon campus. I had requested letters of permission for both and, unkown to me, they were denied on the grounds that I can only take a maximum 6.0 credits elsewhere during the F/W terms.
These are the effected requests:
0000379829 - HIST 3255
0000391609 - HIST 3257
There are two reasons I completed these courses without permission.
First, I simply had no idea that there was a maximum amount of credits to take per year. Had I known this I would not have taken more than the allowed amount. I had spoken to an academic advidor about my plans to take these courses and clearly she didn't know about this limit either. She is no longer working as an academic advisor but I can ask her to corroborate if requested.
Second, having made the requests I was lead to believe that they were approved. This is because (and I now realize my ignorance) I believed that when the status of these requests went from
