Верный ответ

  • CI would be grateful if you could meet me next week.

Разбор

A formal email to a senior person requires a polite, indirect request in neutral or formal register. «I would be grateful if you could meet me next week.» uses a conditional polite formula and full forms. «Hey, I wanna talk to you next week, so tell me when you are free.» is slangy and uses a contraction («wanna») and an informal greeting. «Can you fix a time for us to have a chat next week, mate?» is colloquial and uses «mate», which is inappropriate for a dean. «You must find some time to meet me next week, Dean.» sounds like an order and is impolite. So the only suitable sentence is «I would be grateful if you could meet me next week.»
