I am writing this appeal letter, because I have received a letter saying that I am eligible to attend the University of Wisconsin La Crosse anymore due to my academic standing. I wish, and hope that you may reconsider. I have been attending this college for two years now, hoping to go on my third. And I would love to say that I enjoy this community very much and that I wish to stay. I wish to grow better as a student and as a member of the college community. Here in this college I am currently a leader of InterVarsity, a Christian organization on campus, and have been active in HOPE, a Hmong organization on campus. Although I have been active within the college community and have been success at it, I have failed towards being a student.
As a student, I came into this college with high expectations, expectations that will make me successful no matter what. But I also came into this college with a girlfriend, who I have been dating ever since high school. My first year here my girlfriend, at the time, and I ran into a lot of problems. My girlfriend attended the University of Marathon County with me but soon transferred to the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities and I transferred to the University of Wisconsin La Crosse. The distance was a challenge to her. Her demands and my priorities were not on the same page. She always wanted me to be there for her and with her, but I told her I wanted to stay, because the University of Wisconsin La Crosse is a great college and I had to focus on my school work. She threatened me numerous times over the year that she was going to break up with me if I did not visit her as much as she wanted me to. So that made me stressed out and my focus on school work was deterred. So going b...

...eginning. I would love to reach the success story that I made the first time I attended this college and that is to be successful no matter what. With no girlfriend to distract me, I can fully place my time in my school work. If I am to run into a situation where I would get depress, I would seek help and find a way to get out of the depression. I do not know if the campus provides helpful thoughts about being depress, but if they do I would be happy to get help from it. And if I need help with school work, I will find tutors and talk with the professors to help me become successful in what I am doing. I hope and wish that you would reconsider and reinstate me to this college. I hope to continue my education here and finish here as well. I hope to still be a leader of InterVarsity and to be a member of HOPE. And this time I will become a successful student.
The United States civil rights movement was a constant battle for the rights and freedom of African Americans. Martin Luther king Jr., the leader of the civil right movement, was hosting a non-violent protest in Birmingham city. However, the protest did not go as planned and King was arrested for agitating the public. Many fellow white clergymen were angered and upset over the “Ungodly” act. As a result,the Clergymen wrote a statement that claimed Martin Luther King Jr. to be an extremist. Martin Luther King Jr. responds to the clergymen’s statement while residing in Birmingham jail by writing a letter using the ethical, emotional, and logical appeals to defend his actions.

My name is Kaha Salad and I am appealing my Satisfactory Academic Progress suspension. Autumn semester of 2013 was a difficult time for me, I was going through many different changes in my life and I just didn’t know how to adapt. I experienced a personal event in the summer of 2013 that made my life change forever. My Grandmother Khadija died, she was the light of my family’s lives. My mother was immensely affected by her death, she went into a state of depression and she then stopped working. I took it upon myself to help out my grieving mother and get a job to help pay with the bills that was piling up. I began working
“Coastal Carolina is too far away for you to come home when you have the chance.” Kaylee (my Girlfriend at the time) said to me in my first car as we talked about college choices. I told her about my acceptance to Coastal Carolina University I received from Mrs. Emmons (personal guidance counselor in high school) during a school day, early February. Kaylee’s words made me start a to question myself; “What other colleges can I choose?”. I came home and sat down with my parents in the living room with my Coastal Carolina acceptance letter in my hand and they were proud of me. I asked my parents the same question I asked myself earlier that day “What other colleges can I choose from?”. When
After graduation of my high school, I’ve decided not to attend college. I spent over three months preparing for college admissions. Over three months of studying for the SAT and writing essays for colleges. But, all this hard work was blown away in just a week. The week before the May 1st, the decision day, I had made my decision not to attend college. I have decided to return to my country and start working. Of course, there was a strong disagreement from my parents, but I didn’t hesitate. For the past years, I have worked in many different kinds of places and I have faced the true reality. This made me want to attend college and brought me to Concordia College.
I will definitely enjoy the independence of campus life. The camaraderie, which will develop, should only add to the college experience. The courses will be challenging but I am willing to do what it takes to achieve my ultimate goal, which was alluded to earlier. The untapped potential is there. I would like to be given the opportunity to show what I can accomplish.
I am writing today to appeal my academic probation status so that I may continue receiving the Pell Grant for my studies. I have had an obvious stumble in my beginnings with FAU but I am certain that with steps I've taken this summer I will be back on track to a good academic standing while completing my bachelor's degree. After withdrawing from two classes this past spring I dropped below the 67% required completion rate. Despite this, I persisted and paid for a summer class myself. I also withdrew from this second-attempt class.
Lifting my heavy head with eyes half asleep off of my comfortable and plush pillow I see 7:20am with the date of August 25th on my phone screen. The second day of classes is now upon me, trying to adjust not only to a new semester at school but also to living away from home, with strangers now known as roommates, and as a transfer student. Starting school has never felt this way, living in a brand new environment with my mom not being there to make me breakfast and to encourage me saying “Have a great first day, I know you’ll do great!” I was now one among the thousands of people that have worked so hard towards attending this prestigious University and some that were thousands of miles away from their homes and families.
I am writing this letter in great hopes of having my financial aid reinstated for the Spring of 2016. I came to LC on an academic and athletic scholarship with the best mindset anyone could have, but I was immediately sat on the bench. As a first year student without the support I could usually find in my friends and family from home and having no outlet for my escalating frustration and my always lurking chronic depression, I quickly started to become stressingly overwhelmed. I had the most unexpected and horrible event happen to me in the first week of Fall 2015. I became a popular subject within whispered conversations for a month and a half on campus among LCSC’s Track and Field and Cross Country team and eventually the Talkington dorm
I hope that by sharing my personal statement, I have been able to give you an insight into the person I am and what I hope to achieve. I have included what I have felt to be the most significant influences on my career choice. I expect undergraduate school to continue to be a journey which I embark upon with great
My life has not always been as bright and promising as it is today; I had no idea where my life was going, or how I would possibly be able to attend college at all. Since I was a child, my self-esteem has always been low, and any time college was brought up, it simply made my confidence drop even further. I never believed I could handle college, and never thought I would even be given the opportunity to attend.
My intense passion for learning has shifted my life in a new and positive direction. I feel that my personal experiences and challenges have served as a basis for growth and preparation for a life of helping others. This is why I have worked so hard to complete my undergraduate education despite my many responsibilities. I believe that this makes me a great candidate for this program. I am a diligent and attentive person who deeply cares for others in need. I feel that everything that has brought me to where I am today has shaped my life and will make me a great social worker. I want to thank you very much for considering my application for the master of social work program.
I no longer allowed what had happened at Sandia hold me back anymore. I began to accelerate in my classes. I was getting all A 's and B 's. It felt great to be back on track. Even though I still had anxieties, I was getting back into school. I still felt that my work was never quite good enough at times. When I had to take my writing EOC for graduation, I thought that I would not even pass. However, once my essay was graded the principal called me to her office. When I got into the office I saw the principal, vice principal, and the English teachers. They told me that my EOS writing essay was the best in the school and had the highest grade. I set the whole grade point average for the class. They hung it up and gave me a prize and praise. After that, I finally felt like I was able to enjoy school again. I knew that I was smart, my work was worthy, and that I really put all my effort into it. I was finally able to let the past go. In the first semester of my last year of school, I took 11 classes. I took some at school and some online to catch up what I had missed. I then took two extra dual credit classes at CNM in my last semester because I had nothing else to do and wanted to get
Education is something I highly value and I do believe that my grades show it. I have received high honors every quarter for all four years of high school. In addition, I have challenged myself with rigorous coursework, including all honors classes and several AP classes, that have prepared me for what college expectations will be similar to. Even though my SAT scores did not meet the requirement for FIU’s admission into the fall term, I believe that my grades for all four years of high school and my class rank of 14/348 students has proven my dedication toward
This past semester has been the hardest semester so far. I had so much to on my plate. I had internship 16 hours a week, work 22 hours a week, I was taking 4 courses (a total of 15 credits), and I also have my 2 year old son. I got very little sleep, I gain 10 pound, and I was in physical pain almost every day. I am physically, mentally, and emotionally drained. This semester was difficult for me I think I was just doing too much that it overwhelmed me. Even though it was so difficult for me I’m glad I got through it. The things that I learned and did was worth
