How would I write a letter of petition to my school to drop two of my marks (more)?
In a nutshell, I did horribly in two of my courses and I was not able to drop them in time for the drop-date deadline. So now, those two courses will be in my transcript and effecting my overal GPA and my major GPA. I found out that I could write a petition to get these two courses erased from my transcripts. From my school website it says that the petition letter should include:
“Circumstances or grounds for the petition: explain in detail all the circumstances and problems which prompted your petition request. If you are requesting to drop some but not all of your courses in a term or session, explain your selectivity.”
How do I go about writing this? How do I begin writing this? What format? First person? Third person? How do I make this sound formal? What should I start talking about?
Well if it’s a petition, you should first find a whole bunch of people to sign it to prove they support you and your motives. Then in the actual letter, address the issue, support it, and finish by saying u have this many people who also support you.
It’s not actually a petition like that lol. It’s just a letter to the committee in my school asking to drop my marks. But thanks.
I don’t even get why it’s called a petition.
Do you have a good reason for this Janice? Usually things like this require reasons such as long term illnesses or something that kept you out for a while. If you just want them off because you failed them for not trying hard enough or not understanding the material, etc… Chances are you won’t be able to lose them.
I actually talked to an advisor about my marks and everything. She was the one who suggested I try. I don’t exactly have a great reason, but I do know a few people why who were in my situation and were able to get it
I wish you the best of luck then!
I suppose you talk to a teacher (probably your English teacher) and ask them what the best way would be to start it off. I would probably write it in third person. You may want to follow this layout:
Introducing statement(something interesting, a fact, a question, a small explanation) Plan(say what you will be talking about. Ex: constantly, I have seen thing 1, thing 2, thing 3. Or: this is easily included by thing 1, thing 2, thing 3)
Topic sentence (thing 1) Supporting detail Evidence Supporting detail Evidence Supporting detail Evidence
Topic 2 (Repeat above)
Topic 3 (Repeat above)
Sum it all up(reword topic sentence and plan)
Hope this is what you’re looking for. tigerlover101
