Can someone give me advice for my low GPA addendum? Anyone has experience on how to write, if at all?
There were some issues/hardships in my family and my grades were harmed because of this, but my concern is, there isn't really an upward trend in my uGPA, should I even write an addendum at all? I hope it does not leave a bad impression (finding excuses..ect)
The word limit is 600 so I kept it short, which I should anyway.
Thanks so much in advance!
Admission Committee,
I would like to provide an explanation for my low GPA.
During freshmen year when I left home for the first time in life, my family went through a tragic event (details can be provided if needed) Now that I became mature, independent and emotionally strong, I believe my undergraduate GPA does not fully represent my capabilities in further education. Please take this information into account when you evaluate my application. Thank you for your time and consideration.
