Dear [student name here],
We are sorry to hear of [insert situation that would require an academic transfer]. However, we are excited to tell you that you have been accepted at Greendale School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for the opportunity to continue your secondary wizarding education. Which probably takes a load off of your chest, doesn't it? Don't worry, we accept all types here.
Enclosed with this letter is a list of all of your necessary books and equipment. If you know how to use the internet, I recommend getting them used online. has great sales in August, and they'll even ship by owl post!
If you have no clue what the internet is, rest assured that we have an on-campus bookstore for most of your student needs. However, we run out fast, so really check with any muggle friends, neighbors, or acquaintances about the whole 'internet order' thing before you write off using the method entirely.
Term begins Sept. 1. Please rsvp by owl (or pigeon, if you're really short on cash-we don't judge!) by no later than Aug. 31.
The preferred travel method to school is by floo powder. If you really must use a broom, please don't make it longer than a four-seater. Our adjacent forest's elderly centaurs have poor vision, and they sometimes mistake long brooms for dragons. As you can imagine, this has led to some unfortunate accidents with arrows in the past.
Yours sincerely,
Craig Pelton,
Dean
