This document provides two sample excuse letters written by a college student named Atasha Khim Ortiz. The letters are addressed to the Dean of the College of Education and to a subject teacher, Ma'am Grace Fajardo. They are intended as templates for students who need to formally explain an absence or lateness to an exam.
The first letter is addressed to the Program Director or Dean. It explains that the student was late for an exam because she slept late the previous night. She had to wash clothes because her mother was sick, and she also reviewed her lessons. She overslept as a result. She asks for understanding and permission to take a retake or special exam.
The second letter is addressed to the subject teacher. It contains a similar apology and explanation. The student mentions that her mother is sick, so she did family laundry late in the evening and then stayed up to review. She asks if she may take a special exam at the teacher's convenience, pending approval from the Dean's office.
Both letters follow a formal structure: date, salutation, body explaining the reason for the lateness, an apology, a request for a special exam, and a closing with the student's name and class. The document serves as a practical example for students writing academic excuse letters.
