Extenuating circumstances can include physical illness, mental health challenges, bereavement, or the emotional effects of traumatic personal experiences. Significant family changes, such as a parent’s divorce or death, can also affect emotional well-being and academic performance. Our doctor’s note can help ensure that your circumstances, no matter what they are, are fairly considered.
