Dear applicant:
It is my great pleasure to inform you that you have been accepted for an apprenticeship in the Research Department at the Ministry of Magic. In this role you will have the enviable opportunity to work under one of the great wizards of our time, Dr. Hieronymous Grout, assisting him with his researches on Applied Arithmancy (with a particular focus on Defense Against the Dark Arts). We have arranged a student room for you in the Ministry dormitory. Please report to the dormitory at your earliest convenience and after you have settled in they will direct you to Dr. Grouts laboratory to start work.

Congratulations and welcome! We expect great things from you.

Very Sincerely Yours,
