This is an appeals letter for the University Academic Appeals Committee. This is a letter of appeal for the summer Counseling Art Therapy Class with Phyllis Nodler. This was a hybrid class so I had been doing the pre- class work. As for class I was un- able to attend for medical reasons. I was sick starting in May and was in the E.R. on the 20th. I continued to have fevers and be ill and one of my doctors sent me back to the Boise E.R. on June 3rd. I had a spinal tap that day and was released. I continued to have fevers and was still ill, so I went back to the E.R. in Mountain Home on June 7th. They told me the spinal tap I had done showed Meningitis and I should have never been released; I was admitted. After that I was ambulanced to the
I am writing to appeal my academic dismissal from NOVA Southeastern University. I was not surprised, but very upset to receive a notice of my dismissal. I sat out for a year and would like to be accepted for the upcoming semester. I admit, I had a very difficult time during my last semester and as a result my grades suffered. I don't mean to make excuses for my poor academic performance and I understand it’s my fault, but I would like to explain the circumstances as well as my great interest in the program.
I am writing this letter to appeal my attendance for this last semester. I am aware about my attendance in the last couple months. I take school seriously and I would like to prove that because of my medical history that these abscesses are beyond my control.
I am writing to you in the hopes to appeal the decision of my academic suspension. When I received the news of my suspension I was deeply saddened, but understood completely the circumstances under which the decision was made. My low GPA failed to meet the requirements of the University to remain an active student on campus, which as a result led to my temporary dismissal. In the beginning of my freshman year, I was very excited about coming to Howard University because I had fell in love with the school. Into my first year I took on 18 credit hours convinced that college would be similar to high school. My first semester felt extremely overwhelming, I thought that I could handle my classes, and I convinced myself that I did not need help but I had only proved by the end of that semester that I was wrong. I did not know how to study well, and I could rely on my “smarts” to get me through classes that were rigorous. I enrolled myself without counseling into Spanish 2, calculus 1, and Freshman composition and I struggled the entire way, my pride just would not let me admitted that I needed help. So I lied to myself, I told myself that it would get better or maybe just go away. It did not and after failing my final exams I would be faced with the damage I had done to my, academic career.
While there were various assertions in the written appeal, in the interest of concision, please permit me to address the primary area of concern, which is the final grade. Dr. Larkin confirmed that you did indeed submit the assignments as stated in the appeal. Although there is agreement with that, it is Dr. Larkin’s contention that the grade of “F” for the term was awarded due to plagiarism on the final exam. Documentation of this has been provided. According to the similarity report from turnitin.com, the final exam registered a 71% plagiarism reading. This information was communicated to you via
I’m writing to you, in hopes to appeal my academic dismissal of the nursing program at Adelphi University. I am aware that my grades are lower than required, and I take full responsibility for being on academic probation. I was surprised when I got the news that I have been dismissed from the nursing program because I did not receive any form of notification of dismissal from the University earlier. I was informed by my guidance counselor prior to the start of spring semester that I would say in the program as long as I did not obtain a lower GPA than I had. As a result of my GPA increasing I was surprised to receive the news of my dismissal. Despite this I believe that I did not handle my situation correctly and should have maintained sufficient grades to avoid academic probation. As stated before I recognize and

I am writing to request an appeal of my current dismissal status at Argosy University. I am enrolled in the Associate of Arts in Psychology degree program and I have failed the course English 101- Composition 1, due to a substance abuse problem that I have addressed by joining a program. Up until my first attempt with English 101- Composition 1, my grade point average was a 4.0. I was proud of myself being that it was my first time to ever make it on the President's List. I had so much satisfaction because not only I am doing something that I loved and enjoyed, but over the first few courses, I was able to recognize the knowledge that I have gained and use it in real life situations.
From writing this appeal I plea for a readmission for the upcoming 2016 spring semester to the University of Houston Downtown. The report of my suspension for a low GPA from this college has bought my total attention to understand that my education is not joke. I know it was because I saw my education as need than a want in my life. I know that I was immature from my past college experience furthermore, I was not able to obtain my education in a proper manner. This reality call for lacking on my GPA has opened my eyes to see I am nothing without knowledge. Moreover, I have embrace my failure by seeing that I did not grasp the opportunity in front of me with the best of my being. Now, that this flaw in my part has been unsealed; I have acknowledge the true priorities for myself and my future. I
Quite honestly my 2015 appeal form was written less than 30 minutes inside of the library, to add more disrespect I walked out of the library looking at the faces of working students, just to get ready for a party that night. However, I hold Prairie View to a much higher standard to let my future and education forsake me due to my lack of respect for the committee and my self. For my lack of companionship and even decency to give you all a bull crap paper that did not even hold any remorse or meaning to it. As a childish teenager transforming into a woman I could not kiss my education good bye due to my pride, so I know it will be more than worth the oppturnity to give the appeal letter another chance to write my wrongs.
Urban teens experiencing traumatic grief and loss from gun violence are voiceless and forgotten in communities, schools, families, and even within themselves. How can urban teens dig deep into themselves in order to process and share their own inherent experiences of loss and grief to other teens, which exemplifies healing? A non-profit group in Chicago called Art Therapy Connections goes into urban communities and implements art therapy practices with teens to creatively process, cope, and share deeper feelings in regard to grief and loss.

So, by examining the benefits of school social workers implementation of art therapy practices with
I am writing to appeal my academic dismissal from Chamberlain College of Nursing. I understand that I have taken the NR 302 Health Assessment course two times at Chamberlain College of Nursing and have not been successful, which led to my dismissal. Receiving a dismissal letter on October 30, 2015, through my email was not a surprise to me, but I was upset with myself for pain that I caused to myself. This is my fault and I am fully responsible for this failure. I am writing this appeal letter to explain the reason of my failure and to appeal to you to please consider reinstating me for the spring session.

Art has been my passion since childhood. Spending three years within the teaching environment was where I thought I belonged. Before receiving my Bachelor of Fine Art in painting from Metropolitan State University of Denver a personal experience that connects to my reservation and adoption into the Clinical Mental Health program was one of tragic loss. On January 9, 2002, my son’s life abruptly ended and during the grieving process I started expressing myself through painting. In searching for serenity, individual counseling became enhance. Finding a therapist with a background in marriage and family/art therapy became a visual depiction, a self-portrait symbolizing my external realities and internal emotions immediately following his suicide. Driven to face an extremely irritating and stressful paradox to the best of my ability while trying to keep the constitutional need to endure my life as fully as possible.
Most forms of therapy are centered on verbal communication. Art therapy, however, breaks that mold and introduces a more creative means of both communicating ideas and learning to grow. The American Art Therapy Association defines art therapy as:
