Erasmus cover letter needs check
Hi guys! I am applying for erasmus programme at cbs and I need a cover letter /motivation letter. Here's what I wrote. Could you please check it / correct any mistakes / give me suggestions? Thank you very much! My name +++ +++ My address Subject: Motivation Letter Dear Sir or Madam, My name is ++++ ++++, I am a graduate student of the Master in Economics and International Policies (MSc) at Università della Svizzera Italiana (USI) in Lugano, Switzerland. I am writing this because I would like to have the opportunity to spend the fall semester of this year, at the prestigious Copenhagen Business School, by taking part in the Erasmus Programme as an international exchange student. I have decided to apply for Copenhagen Business School because of the prestige of the university, my personal interest in the excellent courses offered and their relevance to my educational path, as I am currently studying Economics and I have graduated in 2011 with full marks with honors (“summa *** laude”) in Language Sciences at Catholic University of the Sacred Heart in Milan, having studied International Relations, English and Chinese language and culture as majors. In particular, studying at CBS would grant me the opportunity to further develop my knowledge in the field of Economics in order to combine it, in a future working environment, with my language skills, as many courses offered at CBS have marked international contents, regarding emerging markets and international business. For these reasons, I am strongly motivated to diligently attend classes and study at Copenhagen Business School, which I consider the best choice for me as I think I would greatly benefit from the courses it offers. Furthermore, I am convinced that this experience would provide important new skills and competences, as well as improve the ones I have already acquired. Thus, I consider myself to qualify for attending the 2013 fall semester at Copenhagen Business School as I have the necessary skills as well as strong interest and personal motivation to fully benefit from this important opportunity. Hoping for a positive outcome of my application, I thank you in advance for considering my request. Yours faithfully, +++ +++

Erasmus - motivation letter?
Hi, I am looking for somebody who may check my motivation letter. I am not native English so it´s really difficult for me. I think that my letter has grammar mistakes. Mainly in using right tense of the verb, preposition... etc. I would be really grateful. Thank you Dear XX, I am writing to express my keen interest in studying abroad at the Instituto Politécnico do Porto. With this letter I would like to introduce myself and show you my interest in studying abroad as an Erasmus student throughout the fall semester 2013/2014. My name is XX, I am currently studying at the Faculty of Economics at the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice – just finishing final year of Bachelor´s Degree programme in Retail management. Because I have strong interest in Economy, I also study first year of Structural policy of the EU for public administration as second study field too. Thus I devote both of public sector and private sector of Economy. During my studies, I took the opportunity and attended several seminars (Mathematics I and II, Statistics) and presentations (Fair trade presentation from Bolivia and Presentation of the trade from the expert from Australia) which have been taught in English. I always love traveling and discovering new places and cultures. During Erasmus, I want to meet new people, their lives, languages and habits. Only one reason is for me more important than previous mentioned. In this time, the knowledge of foreign languages is the most important benefit. I think that Erasmus is the best way, how improve my English language skills and get elementary knowledge of language of the host country. And I want gain more experience from another study system and an advantage for my academic and personal life. I assume to spend a part of study abroad in one of EU member countries should be necessity for my future career. I have always lived in Czech Republic so studying abroad has been always part of my plans and wishes so I believe that this option can fulfill all my dreams. I would be very pleased if I might spend my next semester in Instituto Politécnico do Porto . I have chosen Portugal as the country of my staying because it is very attractive place for me and its culture is very different of mine. I like challenges. I also want to improve my English and I read that this school has high level of English teaching. The University is interestingly located and offers a broad range of subjects which are taught in English. How I saw on university websites one of the faculties offers interesting programme for Erasmus students, which corresponds with my study programme. For me, it would be a great opportunity to get a different perspective on issues. The next advantage of Porto is ESN (International exchange Erasmus student network). This organization helps Erasmus students in Porto and organizes different types of activities which can help to know Porto and its around. I hope that my motivation letter convinces you and I will be chosen as a member of Erasmus program. Thank you for assessment my request. I look forward to your positive response. Sincerely yours XX

Motivation letter?
i want to send the following letter and i have a lot of mistakes because i translated using google translate. Can anyone please correct this for me? if any sentence doesn't make any sense please inform me. The field of research has always been appealing to me as knowledge and technological developments have no limits. My interest was strengthened through the university, where I realized that through continued research you distinguish in your field and offer additional knowledge to humanity either through your own project or improving an existing one. I always liked to participate in both project groups and sports teams, but also to socialize with people from different countries. The exchange of ideas, a different way of thinking and unique experiences can help you achieve very significant things and solve problems. Upon completion of my studies the research at the renowned research laboratory will help me both to broaden my knowledge and socialize. Finally my ambition combined with my interest in research and interacting with other people makes the position of xxx the ideal place for me. thanks in advance!

Motivation letter review (Master's degree...

Good morning, First of all, thank you very much for your help, I found this forum a few days ago and I've been reading through it since then. I am applying for a master's degree and here is my first attempt of motivation letter. I took a lot of clues and hints from any other letters you posted here. Look forward to your revision, thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to you to express my interest in applying for the MSc xxxxxxxxxxxx programme at xxxxxxx University, scheduled to start in September 2011. I appreciate this opportunity and I would like to provide further information in support of my admission procedure. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science from the University of xxxxxx (Spain) in 2009. I got very good marks in several important and relevant subjects such as Environmental Impact Assessment, Environment and Urban Planning, Ecology and Geographic Information Systems amongst many others. I also have a good knowledge of Mathematics, Physics and Statistics since it was essential during my studies. Due to the wide range of different disciplines that Environmental Science involves, soon after starting my studies I realized that the environmental management was the specialty where I really wanted to focus on. After graduating, I was selected to do an internship for an environmental consultancy in xxxxxxxx (England) for a period of six months, granted by the “Leonardo da Vinci” project. This experience allowed me with the possibility to gain a valuable, international and practical knowledge in the consultancy and environmental advice, areas which I would like to develop my future career in. I sharpened my critical thinking and took responsibility for several environmental projects. My internship also gave me the opportunity to live abroad and meet people from different countries around the world. Soon after finishing my work experience, I started working as a volunteer in the xxxxxxxx for three months. I learned a lot from the volunteers and Volunteering Officer I worked with and gained a lot of experience in the organization work, team working and communication skills. This experience also attests of my capacity of integration and adaptation which I think is essential when studying in a worldwide recognized institution like xxxxxxxx University, with different ideologies and cultural backgrounds offered by its students. Undoubtedly, this creates a great source of international knowledge and global vision which is a great benefit in order to be able to face a wide variety of environmental issues. As my aim is to work in an environmental consultancy, since I came back to Spain I kept pursuing further academic education in environmental management and took additional courses focusing on “Environmental Management Systems” and “Environmental Impact Assessment”. However, I consider that studying the MSc xxxxxxxxxxxx is the best way to gain deeper theoretical and practical knowledge and achieve the career goals I have set for myself, taking a step forward for my professional development in this particular field. The high reputation of xxxxxxxx University in the environmental sciences, the courses this programme combines and the internship programme would provide me with the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical skills I will need to succeed as a urban environmental management advisor in the future. I am aware of the highly competitive demands of this master’s program, but I am confident that I have the ability, ambition and motivation to exceed the requirements and I will do my best to excel within the MSc xxxxxxxxx programme. I would like to mention that I also have the support from two recognized lecturers of the University of xxxxxx who assure I am trained to undertake the MSc xxxxxxxx programme. I am sure that my international background, deep concern in environmental management and willingness to make a progress, combined with practical knowledge make me a very good candidate and will add diversity to this master’s degree programme. Thank you very much for considering my request. I look forward to your positive response. Yours faithfully, xxxxxxxxx...

Question
Could you help me on my little passage, I would be very pleased, any suggestion is welcome. Thanks a lot in advance. In 100 words or less, please describe what you think and expect from the experience of living with a host family. How important is this component to you? I think that by living with a host family I will gain meaningful knowledge to exchange information with the family about the values and culture, and will also expect to share about the way of life of our countries. I believe that intercultural relationship will support my growth as an international oriented person. It is important because, the power to adapt quickly to multicultural environments and the ability to understand different cultures will add much to my future performance as a leader.

Gently request to check my statement of...
This is the rule "In an essay of up to 200 words, describe your plan of study and/ or research you propose to pursue and relate this to your future career plan. (You may include additional relevant material for which there was insufficient space on this form)" Here's my statement of purpose and my proposed future career essays, i'll be more than happy and so grateful if you checked them for me grammatically and gave me your over all idea about them ,also my statement of purpose is 444 words , is that okay ??? and what are the additional materials that can be included. thanks in advance Statement of purpose : It took me twenty years to become who I am today. Now I am known as an independent, open-minded, and friendly girl who has lot of goals which need to be achieved. I am eager to learn new things and I am good persistent with schoolwork since I consider myself a diligent person. Two years ago I graduated from high school. I was full of excitement and ambition to start my university studies, and since it will be my first year of education in my home country (Sudan), I was even more excited. My desire was to study medicine, so I studied hard and got good results which qualified me to enter medical school in Sudan. I gained admission but unfortunately I couldn't start studying there immediately, due to circumstances beyond my control. Precisely, the area responsible for residency and foreign affairs refused to complete my travel procedure, and that due to unknown reasons I was completely not part of them. One year later I applied to the local university where I live –University of Tabuk – KSA–. I started studying the preparatory year where my main goal was to achieve my ambition. In this year I studied the following subjects: Biology, Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, English and Computer Science, all in English. I finished with a score of 4.91 out of 5.00. It was an excellent score which qualified for the university's respected majors, including those in the medical field. Sadly, there were restrictions on foreign students, so I was unable to select a major in medicine. I still hope and believe that someday I’ll achieve my aim. I believe that during the aforementioned period I gained a lot of knowledge and experience. Taking the preparatory year added a lot to my experience and now I know what college life is like. In addition to what I learned in this year, since the subjects were in English, my English level improved greatly. As evidence of this, I scored 100/100 in Level 2 of the English course. I think now I’m more prepared than ever to start my undergraduate study, and I hope this scholarship will give me that opportunity. The scholarship will also give me the chance to experience a totally different environment, where communication will be in English. That will improve my English speaking skills a lot. Also I’m sure living in a whole different country can make me more independent, help me gain insight from cultural differences and expand my networking. I know that the way to my goals is full of challenges and difficulties, but all that will urge and encourage me to continue and persevere. Proposed future career : In the future I would like to be a Doctor, it’s been my dream job since I was a kid, also my parents wish to see me as a Doctor and I would love to make their wish true one day. I have always thought that Medicine is a very honorable profession, since it seeks to help those who need it the most. Human body always caught my interest, in school I always loved the biology class, I think this makes it the perfect job for me. I hope someday I can give the hand of help to who needs it and maybe help find a cure for some serious diseases and serve my community.

Firstly I would like to introduce my self to you. My complete name is : Alberto Correia Date of birth : Leste 9th May 1985 Sex: male Local address: Delta IV Comoro, Dili barat, Timor Leste Country: (Timor-Leste) Occupation : Civil Engineering Student, semester 3. Presently I am at the second year studying Civil Engineering at Dili Institute of Technology (DIT). But I cannot continue my study any more to the next semester (the following year) because my family cannot support me. Actually I come from poor family. I found your website and your email in my country . The purpose of my visiting you is I would like to submit my proposal to you. On the proposal I attached my Academic Transcription from the university, Technical High School Certificate, Resident Identity and my Passport. Here is my proposal, and I am sorry with my English. PROPOSAL Our country is Timor Leste. Timor Leste is a new country and very young, because we just got our independence day on 20th May 2002. Therefore this country needs many developments in many areas and departments, such as: engineering area, economically, technological, social, health, education political, tourism, agriculture etc. Throughout all departments above, this country can get its development and can grow up as well like another country. One of the important department is engineering. So I will prefer to engineering area because Engineering is the discipline and profession of applying technical and scientific knowledge and utilizing natural laws and physical resources in order to design and implement materials , structures , machines , devices , systems , and processes that realize a desired objective and meet specified criteria. “The creative application of scientific principles to design or develop structures, machines, apparatus, or manufacturing processes, or works utilizing them singly or in combination; or to construct or operate the same with full cognizance of their design; or to forecast their behavior under specific operating conditions; all as respects an intended function, economics of operation and safety to life and property.” One who practices engineering is called an engineer , and those licensed to do so may have more formal designations such as Professional Engineer , Chartered Engineer , or Incorporated Engineer . The broad discipline of engineering encompasses a range of more specialized sub disciplines , each with a more specific emphasis on certain fields of application and particular areas of technology . Engineering is also the practical application of science and math to solve problems, and it is everywhere in the world around us. From the start to the end of each day, engineering technologies improve the ways that we communicate, work, travel, stay healthy, and entertain ourselves. Engineers are problem-solvers who want to make things work more efficiently and quickly and less expensively. From computer chips and satellites to medical devices and renewable energy technologies, engineering makes our modern life possible. In particular, electrical engineers and computer engineers have a wide range of study options and career paths that let them design, build, and manage those ideas into reality. The contribution of engineering to the country is on the design of innovative technologies to reduce poverty, promote sustainable development and address other United Nations Millennium Development Goals, in such fields as environmental protection, energy, water supply and sanitation, waste management, use of natural resources, medical care, nutrition, housing, hygiene, disaster protection, mobility, communication and climate change - a key concern of the Mondialogo Engineering Award. As a citizen of this country I need to contribute my self to develop this country with the skills and knowledge that I gained during I was in . But the skill that I have recently is not enough and very limit, even though I am also at the second year of the university. I am coming to your presence just to ask your help and support in order for me to continue my study to the next semester because my family could not support me any more. As I told you that I come from poor family. I believe that after I graduated from university I will learn and gain more knowledge and skills. Since I was a child I have dreamt to become an engineer in civil construction area. But then I do not prove yet it because my family could not support me any more. Therefore if I could get any possibility from your agency I would like to prove it soon as possible. In conclusion I am very interest to become an engineer in one day in order for me can develop my new country. If I could get any support from you, actually I would like to transfer to Indonesian country as well. Because in my country specially in the Institute that I belong to during two years, we did not have any practicalities equipments, laboratory practicality, and library or we can say incompletely of facilities etc. My planning forward is I would like to continue my study across to Indonesian country at GADJAH MADA UNIVERSITY (UGM) in Yokyakarta as soon as possible. The reason why I chose to seeking knowledge there, because there has complete facilities, such as: equipment tools for practicality, laboratory, library and etc. I believe that when I finish my study over I will bring more knowledge and skills that I gained to my country. And in the same time I can contribute my self to develop this country this country. In my request I have putted amount money. These money I will use it to pay the university, rent house, food, buying books, transportation from my country to and to treat also the documents that needed and etc. BUDGET PLANING Ø Treat my documents such as: Passport and Visa amount = USD $ 150 Ø Transportation from East Timor to amount = USD $ 300 Ø Transfer (University Registration) = USD $ 500 Ø Rent House US $ 50,00/month X 36 months (3 Years) = USD $ 1,800 Ø Payment per semester US $ 200,00/semester X 6 semesters = USD $ 1,200 Ø Research Practicality in the last two semesters = USD $ 500 Ø Final Graduation from the University = USD $ 1,000 Ø Food, transportation, Photocopy and etc per month 75,00x36 months= USD $ 2,700 Ø Transportation for coming back from Indonesia to = USD $ 300,00 TOTAL = USD $ 8,450 In word amount (EIGHT THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS) That is my proposal and hopefully may you will consider my situation. Thank you very much. Best regards, Alberto Correia Address: --------- Email: Email Removed" target=_blank>---------- Cell phone: -------- <contact details removed by mod. Please don't write them in posts.> ...

Dear molly, How are you? I hope you are doing well. Sorry I am taking so long to write, but I have been busy this weekend. Anyway, I thought I would drop you a line to let you know all about it. Last week, I decided to go to the Horse Riding contest which took place in Peru, I knew about this contest from a leaflet which was hanged on a bus. During the trek, a route that winds through the valleys and over the mountain’s passes was followed. People from all around the world came to join in this contest. The track lies between two mountains and is, specially, designed for horse races. Each member rode on his horse getting ready in addition to a small group of helpers for emergency, the contests were just six. After the sign, we began the race; I was occupying the third rank when we finished the race. I was really blessed with experience and I am longing to recur it over again as it was dreadfully impressive. Well, that’s all my news for now. Please write back and let me know what you have been up to. Lots of love, Relina
