Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to inform you of an error in the correspondence I received dated 13 April 2025, which indicated that my application for the Bachelor of Science programme (reference U2025‑0456) had been rejected. After reviewing the admission criteria and my submitted documents, I am confident that I satisfy all requirements.
Enclosed are copies of my transcripts, the original application form, and the receipt confirming submission on 1 March 2025. It appears my application may have been processed under another applicant's details, resulting in the mistaken rejection.
I respectfully request that the admissions committee re‑examine my application promptly. I would appreciate a written response within two weeks confirming my admission status.
Thank you for your attention.
