Petition Letter
To Whom it May Concern,
I am writing to appeal to be able to take a course load of above 18 units for the Winter 2019 semester. I am hoping to be able to take a total of 21 units for the winter semester in order to complete my requirements to graduate my program. My reasoning for doing so is not due to having failed any courses and instead comes from the fact that I also am apart of a certificate program (Certificate in Business) and am required to take 2 courses per year from their selection. These courses do not count towards my Arts degree however and so I am needing to take a higher course load in order to make up for the courses I have taken that do not count towards my degree. I am currently just below a 3.0 total GPA and I believe I would be able to succeed int taking a higher course load.
