I want to contact a potential supervisor who declined to accept me as a student . I am really very much interested to work in that research group and want to request him a second time and want to start conversation with him. i have written this...

Thank you Professor for your time and considering my application.

I would humbly request you to reconsider my request. I am very much interested to work in your research group as I can relate more to the research activities at your research group being relevant to my background and interests. As I had mentioned in my previous mail that I have got funding, I just need space in your research group under your supervision.

Thanking you in anticipation

Sincerely,
XXXX
