Subject: [Department Name] — Notice of Disapproval for Senior Graduate Thesis [Your Name] [Your Title / Position] [Your Department] [Your Institution] [Date] [Student's Name] [Student's Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Dear [Student's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. I am writing to discuss the recent evaluation of your senior graduate thesis, [Thesis Title], and regretfully inform you that it has been disapproved by the department based on the following assessment. 1. Lack of Originality: One of the key aspects of a successful senior graduate thesis is the demonstration of originality in research, critical analysis, and problem-solving. Upon thorough evaluation, it has been observed that your thesis lacks a novel perspective, and the arguments presented do not contribute significantly to the existing body of knowledge in the field. 2. Inadequate Research Design and Execution: A solid foundation in research design, methodology, and execution is crucial for any academic thesis. Unfortunately, we found several shortcomings in your research approach, data collection methods, and analysis techniques. The flaws identified undermine the credibility and reliability of the findings presented in your thesis. 3. Weak Structure and Organization: A well-structured and organized thesis is vital to effectively communicate your research objectives, methodology, findings, and conclusions. Regrettably, your thesis lacks a coherent structure and suffers from inconsistencies in content, flow, and logical progression. This compromises the clarity and readability of your work. 4. Insufficient Review of Literature: An exhaustive review of relevant literature establishes the theoretical framework and contextualizes your research within the existing scholarship. We observed that your thesis falls short in this aspect, as it fails to adequately incorporate and analyze existing research literature, theories, and concepts related to the topic. 5. Limited Conclusions and Recommendations: The conclusions and recommendations drawn from your research should be insightful, well-substantiated, and offer valuable insights within the study's scope. However, your thesis concludes with limited implications, neglecting to present substantial findings addressing the stated research objectives. Despite your hard work and dedication, it is challenging for us to endorse the current state of your senior graduate thesis for submission. However, we believe that with appropriate revisions and improvements, your thesis has the potential to meet the required standards and contribute significantly to the field of study. To assist you in addressing these substantial concerns, we recommend seeking guidance from your assigned thesis advisor or the department faculty. They can offer essential insights, provide constructive feedback, and help you develop a revised version that aligns with the department's expectations. We understand that receiving such feedback can be disheartening, but please remember that it is an opportunity for growth and improvement as a researcher. We encourage you to approach this setback as a stepping stone towards further refining your research capabilities and developing an exceptional thesis. Should you choose to revise your thesis in light of the mentioned concerns, we request that you submit the revised version within [time frame] to the department for reassessment. We are confident that, with the necessary enhancements, your thesis can demonstrate the scholarly excellence and merit expected from a senior graduate thesis in [Department Name]. If you require any further clarification or have any questions regarding the assessment, please do not hesitate to contact me or schedule a meeting with the department faculty. We remain committed to your success and academic growth. Wishing you the best in your endeavor to address the concerns and achieve the required standards. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Title / Position] [Your Department] [Your Institution]
