    I am writing to you today to ask you to please allow me to meet Satisfactory Academic Progress standards. The reason why I am not currently meeting these standards is because I have exceeded the University’s allowed 60-semester hour limit for a single Masters degree. Now I cannot receive financial aid, which is crucial for me, as I do not have any other source to continue my studies. First of all, had I been aware of this limit, I would have begun this process about a year ago to avoid having to go through this ordeal. The reason why I am over the allowed 60 semester hours is because I am currently pursuing two separate Masters degree programs at Indiana University at the same time.…

    I am appealing an earlier petition of tuition reimbursement that was denied. They denied it because the health problems where all current and ongoing. While they are not wrong about that I do feel as though they ignored some important key factors in the situation and there has been some new health diagnosis as well. I dropped my Accounting II class and my Computers in Society class, I am just asking for a tuition reimbursement so I can retake them in the following semesters.…

    Particular Talents

    Particular talents I will bring to Parkside to enrich the community are: I’m an excellent writer; I can write stories, articles, and even songs, and I help and accept anybody. For example, I often received A’s on my English papers and even won an award for one of them! Also, I have been writing songs since I was 13; I needed help writing the first song, but after that, I was all right on my own. Another example would be that I know how it feels to be the outsider and unwelcome so, I always include anyone new and help them feel part of the group. Academic successes that set myself apart from other applicants would be that I was in the MedSci Academy at Indian Trail High School and Academy for 3 years, I’m about to start online school for…
