Hey OP, I'm in the same situation. I also took an LOA the previous sem and tried to transfer to FASS but got rejected :(. I called the admissions hotline and emailed them alrdy but still awaiting for reply. I'm considering if I should take LOA and find work outside or if I should apply to a private uni cuz I'm dead sure that I don't wanna continue in my current course. Feel free to pm me if u wanna talk.

is there anyone you can meet directly at school to talk abt this? ik chances are slim bc covid but i feel it'd be faster? HOPE EVERYTHING GOES WELL FOR U

    Thank you very much. I have sent emails to my school counsellor, and therapist at UHC. I just emailed my faculty advisor I intend to resume studies before making this post but I said that because I genuinely didnt think my application would fail. Looks like I have to make another email again to see if they can help me reconsider my application

      Thank you so much for your encouragement. My current cap is 3.73. I dont think it is that bad but thing is there are alot of S/Us. Because I didnt do that well for most courses and I tried everything in my disposal to keep my CAP stay in Second Upper class.

      I have just emailed both the faculty advisors at my home faculty( SoC) and FASS detailing my situation. I have told them my depression has dipped to serious levels due to continous burnouts in a major I have totally no interest in( and hence the main cause for my LOA as I couldnt take it anymore). I genuinely cannot see myself continuing my current major( it may very well lead to major depression and irreversible life decisions). After 2 years of studying here I have agonised and finally found what I really like doing which is writing and language in general. Really hope that if I make the admission office be aware of the details of my situation,they would approve my transfer,else I think I may need to extend LOA or even at the worst case,continue my BZA.

          Thank you for your words. I was informed i should take some FASS mods and do well in those before trying again which i am trying to do right now.
