Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to draw your attention to an error in the recent decision to reject my application for the B.Sc. Computer Science programme (Reference: 2020/UG/0456, submitted on 12 June 2020). The decision letter states that my qualifications do not meet the entry requirements, yet I possess the required A‑levels (AAA) and my predicted grades were confirmed on the university portal on 5 July 2020.
Enclosed are copies of my certified result slips and the email confirmation from the admissions portal showing my eligibility. I respectfully request that my application be re‑examined in light of this evidence and that I be offered a place in the upcoming intake.
I would be grateful for a prompt response and am prepared to provide any further documentation if required.
Yours faithfully,
