Subject: Request for an wavier

2. Dear Dr. Skool:

Opening Statement
The first sentence or two should state the purpose of the letter clearly.

I am writing to appeal my current disciplinary status, and to apologize for my involvement in


the floor crawl which led to my being placed on notice. I realize that what seemed harmless
fun to me was actually a danger to my health and the health of others. I sincerely regret my
actions that night

I am writing to request a course overload for 2014-2015

3. Be Factual
Include factual detail but avoid dramatizing the situation.
4. In late October I was diagnosed with tonsillitis. I was sick for over a week, and missed
most of my mid-term exams.
5. NOT In late October after feeling really sick for a few days I finally dragged myself to
Student Health Services
6. Be Specific
If an appeal or request depends on particular facts which the decision maker will want to
verify, be specific.
7. I missed a test January 23, because I flew to Vancouver on January 19 for my
grandfathers funeral and returned only January 26. I enclose the airline receipt and
can provide further corroboration if that would be helpful.
8. NOT I had to attend a funeral out of town so I missed the test on January 23.
9.

10. I am writing to request a special examination in Course 101. On March 12, the date of the regularly
scheduled exam, I have to appear in court as a witness. I enclose a copy of the court summons. A
make up exam in Course 101 has already been scheduled for April 5.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my request. Please contact me by Email or phone if you
have any questions.
