What a good shortage letter includes
A shortage application should be short, honest and specific. It should say who you are (name, roll number, course and semester), the exact attendance figure and the required figure, the real reason with dates, the proof you are attaching, and a clear request: either permission to sit the exam or condonation of the shortage. It should end with a promise to attend regularly.
For example, a student at 68% against a 75% rule, who missed classes from 2 to 18 September with typhoid, would mention those dates and attach the medical certificate and prescription. The tool puts these parts in the right order for you.
Before you submit
Give only true reasons and attach real documents. A false medical certificate can lead to serious action. Submit the letter early, before the shortage list or the exam form deadline. Ask your department whether it needs a set format, a parent's signature or a fee. Condonation is decided by your college under the university's ordinance, so this letter does not guarantee approval.
To see whether approved leave already fixes the shortage, use the medical leave attendance calculator. To plan your way back, use the attendance recovery planner. For short leave, use the leave application generator.
