An employee resigning to go to college, return for graduate studies, or pursue any type of degree can use this template to explain their departure.
Dear Mr./Ms. Bossname,
I wanted to let you know right away that I got into the graduate program for Widget Sciences! Thank you so much for supporting my desire to further my education.
As we discussed earlier, I am going to resign from my position so that I can give my full attention to my studies in this rigorous program.
I am so excited about my new path, and so grateful to you for your encouragement. I hope that we can keep in touch.
Sincerely,
Your Name
