Dear Sir or Madam,
I am Sun Han and will be an exchange student of the intensive English course that will start the 1st of next month. I am writing to ask for some details about my accomodation.
A few days ago, I got an email from the course manager of your university and he wanted me to send my travel schedule and accomodation preference to you. I would like a single room with a private bathroom which is within a short walking distance to the school. It will not be a problem if I share the house or apartment with other students as long as I can keep my privacy within the four corners of my room. I will arrive in the city on October 30, two days before the school begins and leave on December 1, just right after the class ends.
I also would like to know how I can commute from the accomodation to the collage, and vice versa. If I can get to the school by foot, I would appreciate it if you could provide me with the complete address so I can look it up on the map in advance. This would be very helpful in finding the best route. As I mentioned earlier, it would be better if I could just get to school by food, otherwise, I would like to know some public transportation that I can take.
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you for your time and effort in managing the accomodation.
Sincerely yours,
Sun Han
