Apology For College Tardiness

Dear {Professor},

I am writing to sincerely apologize for arriving late to your {Class Name and Number} class on {date}. I am also sorry for any disruption my late entry may have caused.

Please know that my tardiness does not reflect my commitment to my education, nor to your class specifically. I value everything I’m learning from you, and I respect your time. I am taking steps such as {setting alarm/changing sleep schedule/altering driving route/securing child care} to ensure that this does not happen again.

{Include additional context here if appropriate.}

{Optionally, request access to missed material, or affirm that you have reached out to a Teaching Assistant.}

Thank you so much for your understanding. Again, I truly value being a part of your class.

Sincerely,

{Name}
