To Whom It May Concern:
I am a student requesting reinstatement to F-1 student status. I plan to enroll at Penn Valley Community College, Kansas City Missouri for full-time study during the Spring 2013 semester.
I realize that I have failed to maintain my full-time F-1 student status and would like to explain the circumstances, beyond my control, which prevented me from enrolling in full 12 credit hours of undergraduate program at Park University last semester.
Due to extreme sickness resulted from not being used to the weather changing, I had been absent from class longer than 2 weeks and wasn’t able to contact the teacher which I deeply regret. This had conflicted with school policy so I was administrative withdrew from classes. I wasn’t aware of the seriousness of this situation after I returned from school and being told that I was no longer in my registered classes. I had contacted the international office at my school then to get this problem resolved but it was too late so I couldn’t sig n up for new classes to replace the classes which were missing. I tried to apply for admission at Penn Valley Community College and got accepted and this letter was required to complete the admission process. I’d like to state that I was not being out of status for more than 5 months and I file this reinstatement letter as soon as possible under these circumstances and failure of this could lead to extreme hardship for me and my future education. I’m determined to finish my degree in the U.S as soon as I can in order to go back to my country and work there. Please consider my circumstances and give me the final opportunity to complete my degree.
I would like to state that I have not been employed during this time, as I do not have authorization to do so.
Your consideration of my request for reinstatement will be greatly appreciated. I would very much
