Going back to school is one of the easier resignations to write — the reason is unambiguous and rarely contentious. Keep it brief and forward-looking.
Example output
Dear Lisa,
Please accept this letter as my resignation from Northpoint. My final day will be Friday, August 8, 2026, which gives me three weeks before my graduate program begins.

Thank you.
Kind regards,
Alex Whitfield
