'I hope that you can give me some latitude on this' - my e-mail sent to UC Davis

This e-mail, it is very important to me.
Please give suggestions on how to get my point across.
Thank you!
***********************************

Dear :

I submitted my application for the University of California Davis on November 24th. My current school, Grant Community High School, has already mailed my transcript to you. I mailed my transcript request to my previous school, Burlingame High School, on November 14th. However, the school did not receive my transcript request as I called for conformation on November 23rd. I recently acknowledged Burlingame high school's student record office is closed from November 30th - December 14th

I understand that the application deadline for UC Davis is November 30th. However, I hope that you can give me some latitude on this, as I wasn't aware, until recently, that my first high school will not send out any transcript until December 14th. I will contacted Burlingame high school on December 14th, but I fear that they may not have gotten it out on time.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

XXXXXXX XXXXX

I recently acknowledged [ I recently found out that]
I will contacted Burlingame high school on December 14th, but I fear that they may not have gotten it [send my transcript] out on [by the] time [you need it for confirmation].

I think this is fine. Question though, when did we have to send out transcripts for UCs? I haven't sent mine out and I'm not sure when they need them by. Sometime this month, but I'm not sure when.

Great job Jonathan, thanks! I'll help a little, too:

I understand that the application deadline for UC Davis is November 30th. However, I hope that you can give me some leniency in this instance, as I wasn't aware until recently that my first high school would not send out any transcript until December 14th. I will contact Burlingame high school on December 14th, but I fear that they may not have gotten it out on time.
