To whom it may concern,

My name is hussain buzaid and I am writing this letter in hope to allow me continue studying at CWU. And, it is my duty in this personal statement to reflect my reasons that placed me in this position. In spring quarter of 2015, I was struggling with my major, construction management, which its courses are not offered every quarter. Because of that, I had to take a course, IET161 Architectural design that was only offered in spring quarter. In this course I was facing a hard time and it was really tough for me, and caused my quarter GPA to drop below 2.00. then I realized that this major does not fit with my ability. And I have a petition letter from the instructor that proves my suffering in this class. Unfortunately, when I came back from suspension that I had for one year, no one advised me to choose the right major, and I had to take eighteen credits just to catch up with the time that is left in my scholarship. I admit my failure this quarter that I could not satisfy the quarter GPA of 2.00.Also, I have my Cousin transferring to CWU coming from UESL in Pullman so he will start going to the UESL program this summer quarter. And I have to take care of him because he does not speak English, so I have to help him with his finance because he still pays from his own and not having scholarship. Upon that, I just sign up a new contract to an apartment for me to stay with my cousin so that will help my life be stable. This was a big responsibility for me to take care of my cousin without my consideration or consent. Another reason is that being away from family is a big challenge on myself I cannot imagine that I would be far away from parents because they are trying so hard to make me successful. For the last quarter, I really put all my efforts to improve my academic performance and I succeed in three courses except the course that I mentioned above. It was heavy duty on me then I decided to change my major and choose the best for me.

In future plans for completion of my degree if I am guaranteed to continue at school. I have outlined steps that direct me toward the success in my degree. I chose to major in Administrative Management and information Technology that fits with my ability. It is a good major and I am confident that I will display my success in this degree. I already went to the department of ITAM and got accepted in this major and I am waiting for my advisor to come back from the vacation and set up an appointment to map out a schedule for course that will be appropriate for me each quarter. I will make appointments with my professors in the office hours to discuss things that I miss in my classes. Also, I am going to study with groups, which will help me a lot to perform better.
