请求信－范例答案

    Dear Sir or Madam,

    I am writing to formally request to withdraw from two courses: introduction to Elementary Education (EDU601) and Teaching methods (EDU 609).

    The main reason for reducing my course load is that I am finding it extremely difficult to manage six courses. In the beginning of the term, I was perhaps overly optimistic about juggling both my full time studies and my part time job (20 hours/week). Because I really must work part time, I have no other choice but to summer semester, if they are available, so that I will be able to complete all the courses for the degree program by the following year.

    I would also like to request a tuition refund, and hope I am not too late to receive the full reimbursement. I am sorry for any inconveniences I have caused by this change in plans. This decision was not taken lightly, and I do appreciate the kind consideration you have shown to me.

    Thank you fro your attention to these requests. If you have any questions, please feel tree to contact me at 277-9144. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Your sincerely,
