Dear Sir/Madam,

I, (student’s name), am a student of grade 12. I recently noticed that my date of birth on school certificates, results, and documents is incorrect. Now, I have to send the documents and fill in my college application for admission. Such discrepancy can lead to rejection from admission as well.

I do not want to risk my university admission hence I request you to correct my birth date in accordance with my NIC so that there are no issues.

I hope that you will resolve this issue as soon as possible as the university admission dates are just around the corner.

Yours Truly,
