Dear Mr [surname], Yesterday I received a call from my distance-learning fellow student, and he informed me that our exam dates have been changed to May 5-8 instead of in June. Therefore, I would like to request a 5-day leave to enable me to write the exams. If possible, I would like to be absent from work from May 3rd to 8th.
