Dear Tutor,
I hope
this
letter finds you in good health. I am writing this
letter to apologize for not attending the interview. The main reason for this
circumstance is that the previous meeting which was supposed to end early, ended late.
I booked the train ticket to the college station yesterday. But because the previous appointment ended late, I missed the train, and the next train was in two hours.
Furthermore
, I apologize for not showing up, I could come there In two hours if you are okay with it. Otherwise
, I could attend the meeting any time this
week, as I am free for the rest of the week.
Moreover
, Could you please let me know about the meeting hours, how long it is going to take, and whether there will be any assessments during the meeting? I wanted to know this
because I want to prepare before coming to the meeting. I would be very grateful if you accept my apology, and give me further
details. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours Faithfully,
