Petition Letter
Dear Associate Dean of Studies,
My name is Bingyi Lin and my student number is 20153906. I am a third-year Con-ed student majoring in psychology. I have been struggling with my mental health during the past few weeks, I was not sleeping or eating almost at all, therefore I was not in the clearest and healthiest state to make the brightest decision. After revisiting my decision, I have felt like it may not be the best fit for me right now because I still feel deeply unmotivated and hopeless about what the semester is going to be like. I have also tried to seek help from multiple professional counsellors on campus from Student Wellness Services, as well as Support Services. Therefore, I am applying for this academic appeal to add the class PSYC336 back to my schedule and drop PSYC570 at the same time. Therefore, I would still maintain a reasonable workload of 5 classes. I will also monitor my mental health and my academics during the next few weeks and prior to the March 4th drop deadline, I will make a decision as to whether remaining in this course (or others) is a good academic decision and if not, I will drop courses by that deadline. I believe that I will have a better answer as I continue to get help from professional counselling.
