Request to Add Friend to Existing Group in [Course Name]

Dear Professor [Professor's Last Name],

I hope this email finds you well. My name is [Your Name], and I am a student currently enrolled in your 'Course Name' at [University Name]. I am writing to discuss a matter regarding my friend, who recently joined our course.

As per your instructions, we are required to submit a group list consisting of 4 to 5 members before the commencement of next week's classes. Unfortunately, this week's classes have already concluded, and if my friend waits until the next class to find group members, it will likely be too late. Moreover, if my memory serves me correctly, I recall that group 10 already consists of 6 members.

Therefore, I would like to inquire if it would be possible for my friend to join the 5-member group I am currently a part of. I believe this would be a mutually beneficial arrangement, as it would ensure my friend's inclusion in a group and maintain the optimal group size for both groups involved.

I understand that this is an exceptional request and may require your approval. If there are any additional materials or steps required for this request to be considered, please let me know, and I will ensure that everything is promptly provided.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I appreciate your understanding and assistance in accommodating my friend's situation. If you have any further questions or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to your favorable response.

Sincerely,

[Your Name] [Your Student ID] [Your Email Address] [Your Phone Number]
