Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Joe Smith, a first year student in your marketing class at Humber College.

I am writing this to aprise you regarding the project which was due last week, however, I am afraid, I have not completed yet.

As you are aware, I have been absent from class since 5 days with Unforeseen crisis in my family. My grandmother died, and all of my family members are in pain, hence to look after them and to provide shoulder, I have to stay with them. I tried to accumulate Myriad data from peers and finished some research too. You can find out from my attendance that I never missed your class or deadlines for any assignments.

Despite, I am requesting an extension of one week in this senario as I am much behind in this course.

I hope you will take this matter into consideration and grant me an extension. I appreciate your understanding this regards.

Your faithfully,

Joe Smith
