Subject: Acceptance of Late Exam

Dear Professor ,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally request your consideration in accepting my late
midterm exam submission that was originally due on May 13. I understand that the deadline has passed, and I genuinely
apologize for any inconvenience caused by my delayed submission. I take full responsibility for my actions and assure
you that it was not due to any intentional negligence on my part.

I would like to explain the circumstances that led to the delay. I have been ill for the past three weeks, I have
family obligations including my aunt's 60th birthday, and I am unable to work effectively due to my health. Because of
this, I have a lot of schoolwork that has to be completed. Due to these unforeseen circumstances, I faced significant
challenges in meeting my academic responsibilities promptly. However, I have utilized this additional time to complete
the exam to the best of my abilities, ensuring that the quality of my work remains consistent with the course
requirements.

I sincerely value your dedication to maintaining a fair and equitable learning environment. I fully understand the
importance of adhering to deadlines and the impact it has on the overall learning experience. Despite my tardiness, I am
committed to fulfilling my academic obligations and completing all coursework in a timely manner.

I kindly request your understanding and ask for your consideration in accepting my late exam submission. I am
confident that the reasons provided will help clarify the circumstances surrounding this delay.

I appreciate your time and consideration in reviewing my request. I genuinely apologize once again for any
inconvenience caused, and I assure you that I have learned from this experience and will make every effort to ensure
that such delays do not occur in the future. I eagerly await your response regarding the acceptance of my late exam
submission.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,
