Academic Plan
By applying to omit this deadline, I will be accessing two courses that will greatly impact my GPA, allowing me to continue my studies at queens university and continue on my current course plan to switch my major into gender studies. In particular, as previously stated in my petition letter, the impact that my current IDIS 173 grade has on my GPA is astounding and needs to be promptly addressed. In being able to retake the class, particularly while I am no longer suffering from a head injury, I will be able to obtain a much higher grade on my GPA, along side my steadily improving grades from my last and current semester.
Additionally, the GNDS 280 class will act as another GPA booster, and will allow me to continue along the course plan I have set in place with my academic advisor. Ideally it will take me another 2 years to graduate if I choose to pursue a gender studies based major, and the addition of more gender studies in my course load will best allow me to reach that goal.
While my GPA is not at a place I want it to be now, by taking more courses and correcting past unforeseen and unapproachable circumstances, my chances of recovering it skyrocket.
