Dear Sir,
I am petitioning to retroactively late drop Marketing 437 and 440 from fall semester 2019 of MSc. Marketing. On February 3, 2019, I was met with a truck accident on Route 212 in Chicago. I suffered a severe concussion and my left patella was broken in several places. Since the accident, I underwent two surgeries to have my kneecap rebuilt and another operation to have the hardware removed. I was unable to attend my classes for the rest of the semester. I was able to complete Marketing 426 and 428 from my home, but I was unable to complete Marketing 437 and 440 because both courses required a practicum, which I was unable to attend. Thus, my reason for being selective in asking for a retroactive late drop of these two courses.
This letter serves as my formal petition for a retroactive late drop from the two courses and my explanation of the circumstances.
Please see attached medical documentation and the hospital records for your information.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
John Mathew,
