Appeal Letter on Poor Performance in Semester

Question: Writer an an appeal letter regarding poor performance in semester. Answer: Respected sir/ madam, I would like to humbly appeal to the dean of the University of Hofstra regarding my inferior performance and beg you to consider my circumstances and the effort I have put forth in my studies despite my family crisis. Being an international student did not allow for me to attend to the needs of my family and thus the resulting stress had a noticeable impact on my academic performance. I can assure you that I have given my best effort in my academic career and in the cases where the teachers supported me; my performance has improved by some small margin. For example, in the mathematics, my previous performances have been poor but the improvement in my spring semester attests to the fact that if the conditions are favourable I am capable of performing at the standard the university requires of me. In some cases, the teachers were unwilling or unable to help me and these were the classes where my performance was subpar. It is my dream to graduate from Hofstra and I am unwilling to give up on my dream even if I am at an age where my relatives and friends are starting the families and professional lives that is causing me no small amount of envy and inferiority. My poor social skills are another reason for me to depend on the teachers so much because I do not have any friends to help me with my study and time management. My final goal is to major in industrial engineering, which I am unwilling to give up. I also have been accepted for internship in august and hope to be accepted in another one in winter. I have the faith in my own abilities and the university that it can help me achieve my dreams. Thus, I beseech you to consider my appeal to support me through these distressing times in my life and help me achieve my best by guiding me in the systematic way in which I can handle my tasks. Thanks and regards. Yours faithfully,
