Academic Plan
The lease is for one more year, therefore I plan on searching for a new house in Kingston in order to come back for my fourth year. I plan on taking a lighter course load during my third year so I can have a part-time job during school and save up to rent a place on my own fourth year. I also plan on maintaining my doctor¿¿s appointments to keep my anxiety down to a minimum and relieve any stress. I didn¿¿t want to take a year off and apply to transfer to University of Toronto because I love Queen¿¿s and I am very determined to push through this. A break from all my stress here will allow me to come back ready to focus and study like I used to without all the extra worries and conflict. I have consulted with academic advisors a few times during this semester to plan out how I can put myself in a better position to succeed here, and this route was suggested.
I hope you understand and allow me the opportunity to better myself mentally and come back to Queen¿¿s ready to succeed and perform academically to the best of my abilities.
Sincerely,
Antoinette Gambardella
