# Offer Decision Deadline Extension

Hi <mark style="background-color:blue;">\[Recruiter Name]</mark>,

I hope this message finds you well. I completely understand if this is not possible, but I would like to request an extension on my offer decision. While there is no doubt that this is a gracious offer and I am excited about the opportunity to potentially join your team, I would like to be sure I am considering all of my options (**Note: you can even say you want more time to discuss with a mentor/parent–up to you!**) prior to accepting. Please let me know if I can get a decision to you by <mark style="background-color:blue;">\[Insert Date]</mark>.

Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing from you!

Best,

<mark style="background-color:blue;">\[Your Name]</mark>
