Appeal letter for readmission to nursing program

Even for the most devoted students, life sometimes gets in the way of completing a class or school program. If you have been dismissed from the nursing program due to failing grades or withdrawing from classes, you are allowed to repeal the dismissal.

While each school has different policies, a dismissed nursing student is removed from the program for 2 to 3 years before being allowed to continue her education. If something out of your control caused you to fail or withdraw from a class, you can write a a letter of appeal that might help you to remain in the program. You stated that you resigned from your first job to "avoid distractions", but later you stated that you are now working as a CNA.

You need to explain why Job A was a distraction and Job B will not be. While they might appreciate that you are more compassionate, it does not ensure academic performance.

I would instead emphasize your increased nursing knowledge. For example, " This job has given me a better understanding of diseases and disease process, along with increasing my critical thinking skills by You need to show them that you recognize what caused you to fail list them , that you made an attempt to correct them in school evidence but the improvements were not enough to pass, have a job that increases your knowledge base give examples , and a detailed plan of action if allowed to re-enter nursing school ask questions in class, meet with instructors weekly and after tests, meet with a tutor X times per week, etc.

Thank you for considering my request. Sincerely, Trixie T.. I will admit that I had a very difficult time during the Spring of , and my grades suffered as a result.

I am not making any excuses for my poor academic performance, but I would like to explain the circumstances. I was so excited to start at M.

I had a really hard time dealing with the circumstances of his death. I closed myself off to the rest of the world, and I stopped communicating with both my family and my professors. At the time, I guess I just needed time to grieve in my own way. I now understand and have learned that I should have kept in communication with my professors, instead of avoiding them, or I should have tried to talk to someone about taking a leave of absence.

I thought that I could handle these burdens more effectively, and I really tried, but unfortunately, I was wrong. All of my professors, except one, offered me in completes for the Spring semester. After talking with the professors who were offering an incomplete, seeing how much work I needed to complete for each class, and understanding the policy and the time constraints I was under, it was cohesively decided that yes, I could probably do the work, but would I really learn anything by doing it that way?

My answer was no, and I wanted to make sure that I had a good, solid foundation to start nursing school and to begin my career. Since the Spring semester, I have worked with D. Last semester when I was away from , I contemplated my college experience and finally realized no one is responsible for my poor grades other than myself.

In the first quarter of freshman year I would finish all my homework early and teach my friends who did not understand the material. Then I got arrogant, thinking I could excel in classes without putting in much effort.

So I started spending less time studying and even skipped classes. At the same time, I thought I was in a healthy relationship when it was in fact extremely toxic. On top of that, I chose to relieve stress by wandering online and distracting myself from the real problems.

Now I fully understand your decision of dismissing me. The truth is I have no problem mastering course material and attaining good grades if I devote the time and effort into studying.

I performed well in classes throughout high school and up until fall quarter freshman year. So I drew from my previous experience and acted upon the following plan last semester:.

I am also more confident and healthier than before. If I return to I will implement the below measures while reinforcing the above mentioned ones:. As I told , I am actually very grateful that I was pushed to take classes elsewhere.

Even though there were many times I was overwhelmed by stress and shame, this was a big wake-up call for me. Now I am ready to face the challenges that lie ahead. Please allow me one last chance to excel as a member of the family.
