It is with sincere intent that I extend this appeal letter to your office. I was deeply saddened when I learned about my inability to meet the GPA requirement of 2.00. The reason behind my inability to level with the institution’s standard is due to failing of one subject which is Digital Logic. I acknowledge that I was at fault because I was not able to handle the pressure and stress of my academics.
However, I also know that the efforts and resources I invested for the class at least deserved me to earn a C. I have been constantly improving in my course but this specific class led me to receiving a GPA of 1.40 which is lower than what is required.
I am not making any excuses for my low academic performance, but I would like to explain my reason for my predicament. I felt unimaginable pressure with the GSA to the point that I thought I was on the edge of a mental breakdown. As a recovering student it was difficult for me to immediately grasp the information being taught in class. I tried many methods for me to keep up with class such as self-study and asking my coursemates to aid me in reviewing. But my efforts were all futile because in the end I still failed.
Both this course and school mean a lot to me. I know I have no excuse for what happened to me but I am certain that I deserved this second chance. My bad performance does not make me a bad student. I am now familiar with the class and know I can perform better in the future. I am hoping that I will receive a favourable response from you, Thank you very much.
