Asking for an extension in responding to the offer of admission

<p>I just received my letter of acceptance to NCF. I don't particularly wish to attend--it was my financial safety school and I've gotten in to a few schools I much prefer at this point--my parents want me to have the option, in case I come around and choose the cheaper option. In the letter, it says I should let them know within 30 days, but I can request an extension until May 1. I drafted the email but was wondering if someone could read it for me to make sure it sounds fine? I've taken out my name and personal information:</p>

<p>To whom it may concern:</p>

<p>My name is _________ (NCF ID: ________) and I have just received my offer of admission to NCF. While I am thrilled, I must ask for an extension until May 1 in responding to the offer of admission. Please let me know if and when this extension is granted.</p>

<p>Sincerely,</p>

<p>Also, I am sending the email to <a href="mailto:admissions@ncf.edu">admissions@ncf.edu</a>. Is this the right address to use? Thank you so much for all of your help!</p>

<p>I'm sure that will be fine. It might be easier to call them up, though. My son spoke with them about the extension, and they did it immediately.</p>

<p>It should be fine. I emailed something along those lines and they sent me a letter in response within a week.</p>
