Petition Letter
February 1st , 2017
Associate Dean (Studies)
Faculty of Arts and Science
Dunning Hall Main Floor
Queen's University
Dear Associate Dean (Studies),
I am writing this letter of academic appeal to request that all of my winter 2015 courses be dropped without academic penalty, that is, that my winter, 2015 courses be deleted from my transcript.
I have been struggling with my mental health difficulties, including severe anxiety, for a couple of years and in winter 2015 they were particularly severe to the point that they interfered with my abilities of attending classes and studying. I have been working with counsellors at Student Wellness services, who supported me to drop my courses in winter 2015. I am still working with a counsellor and am now able to attend classes. These mental health difficulties made too difficult for me to write this letter before now. Recalling the memories were too painful for me that I kept denied the need of the appeal. My counsellor at the time provided a letter to support this academic appeal.
Thank you very much for considering my appeal.
Please contact me or the Student Wellness Service if you require further information.
Sincerely,
Yeji Hong, 10109855
