You are currently taking a course at a college but you will need to have a week off during this course. Write a letter to the college Principal. In the letter • give details of your course • explain why you need a week off • say what you want the Principal to do.

Dear Principal, I am writing this letter to request you to grant me a leave of 7 days in the coming month. As per the course guidelines, principal’s approval is mandatory if a student wants to take off for more than two consecutively. I am enrolled in the ‘Principles of Marketing Course’ conducted by Professor Richard Simons. This course currently has two different sections and I am taking the evening section, which is from 6 pm to 8 pm. My brother is getting married next month. Since I am the elder sister, I have to look after all the arrangements. Moreover, the event is going to take place in another city due to which I will not be able to attend my classes and for that reason, I would require a week off. Thus, I am formally requesting time off from August 26th until August 30th. Also, I would really appreciate if you could share the approval email with Professor Richard for the record. Looking forward to your response. Yours Sincerely, Ifrah.
