Paper For Above instruction
To the Admissions Committee,
I am writing to provide a GPA addendum regarding my academic performance during my prior Master of Healthcare Administration (MHA) program at Rasmussen University, where I encountered challenges that impacted my GPA, which was 1.25. I understand that my GPA does not reflect my true potential or my dedication to advancing in the field of healthcare administration. I appreciate this opportunity to address the circumstances surrounding my academic record and to advocate for my readiness to succeed in Maryville University’s MHA program.
During my time at Rasmussen University, I faced several extenuating circumstances that affected my academic performance. These included significant personal health issues and unforeseen family emergencies that demanded my attention and emotional resilience. These circumstances temporarily impaired my ability to focus on my coursework, resulting in a lower GPA. I want to emphasize that these difficulties were temporary, and I have since taken steps to address and resolve these issues, including seeking appropriate health care and establishing better support systems for myself.
Despite the setbacks during my previous program, I have remained committed to my professional development and continue to build my expertise in healthcare management. I am currently engaged in ongoing education and professional certifications that enhance my knowledge base and demonstrate my dedication to advancing in this field. My experiences have also strengthened my resilience, problem-solving skills, and commitment to continuous improvement, which I believe are critical attributes for success in graduate studies.
Now, I am fully prepared and highly motivated to excel in Maryville University’s MHA program. I have reflected on my past challenges and learned valuable lessons about time management, perseverance, and self-advocacy—skills I am eager to apply to my graduate studies. I am confident that I can maintain high academic standards, consistently achieving A’s and B’s, and contributing positively to the learning environment at Maryville University. I am committed to fostering a strong work ethic and academic discipline, ensuring I maximize the educational opportunities provided by your esteemed program.
In conclusion, I respectfully ask the Admissions Committee to consider my application in light of my growth, resilience, and dedication. I am genuinely motivated to succeed academically at Maryville University and to utilize this degree to make meaningful contributions to healthcare improvement. Thank you for your understanding and consideration.
