Dear [HR department],

I am writing to inform you that I have an upcoming exam on [date] at my university

from 9am to 12pm.
As I am currently a full-time employee at our company, I will not be able to attend
my scheduled shift
on that day.
I understand the importance of my job and the responsibilities that come with it,
but I also understand
the importance of my education. I have been working hard to balance both
commitments, but unfortunately,
there will be a conflict on this specific day.
I would like to request a leave of absence for that day so that I can attend my
exam and continue to work
towards my degree. I am happy to work with my team to ensure that all of my
responsibilities are covered
during my absence.

Thank you for your understanding and support in my education. I am committed to my

job and will make
sure to return to work with renewed energy and focus.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
