Petition Letter
I am appealing for a late drop of two courses I took in Winter 2017 semester. The courses are Clinical Psychology and Geology and are currently on my transcript as failed courses.
I am requesting that I am allowed to drop these courses based on the following extenuating circumstances.
In October 2017 I tore my ACL playing hockey for the Kingston Frontenacs. The tear required reconstruction surgery and I went home to New York to get this done. After the Christmas break I returned to Kingston and the Frontenacs. At the insistence of my parents I signed up for two classes at Queens even though I really felt overwhelmed with the rehab and team commitments.
with all the time commitments I had to the team and the rehab process and trying to get game ready again, adding school was really overwhelming.
I probably should have dropped both courses at this point but I didn't and subsequently I have tow failing grades.
I am looking to enroll full time in Queens in the fall of 2018 and would really like an opportunity to start fresh with out two failing grades on my transcript.
Thank you for your consideration.
