You have been offered a place at a university and wish to find suitable accommodation. Write a letter to the accommodation officer including the following information: the type of accommodation you wish to find some details about yourself any special requirements you may have and any other relevant information.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am delighted to have received a letter of acceptance for the M.Sc. in Computer Science program at your university. My name is Pramod, and I am writing to seek assistance in finding suitable accommodation.
While
I understand that the university offers both on-campus and off-campus student housing, I would prefer to live in off-campus housing. Ideally, I would like to share a house with 2-3 other students, where each of us would have a private room. Although
it is not necessary for my housemates to be from the same field of study, I would appreciate sharing with individuals who are friendly and maintain a clean environment.
Although
I intend to spend most of my time studying in my room, it would be beneficial if my housemates also
enjoy sports as a recreational activity. This
would allow me the opportunity to take a break from studies
occasionally.
I would prefer accommodation close to the university, as I would like to avoid long travel times. Correct pronoun usage
my studies
Therefore
, I am willing to pay a slightly higher rent for a convenient location. Please feel free to contact me at 98XXXXXX should you require any further
details.
Thank you for your assistance.
Yours faithfully,
PramodSubmitted by pramodv997 on
