Hello everyone,

I need to write a formal letter to an abroad University to request some information about a Master degree program they offer. I need to know costs, schedule, requisited papers or personal documents, credits or subject the Master has, etc, Can you help me with it?

Thanks in advanced!

Hi,

Begin by writing the direct questions that you would ask if you were talking face to face with the person.

After that, you can consider changing them into indirect questions. Do you know how to do that?

Best wishes, Clive

Hi,

You seem to have special characters of some kind embedded in your text. They are preventing me from editing it. Can you please try to repost without them?

Dear Dr. Wilson:

I recently learned of the Master degree program you are offering and I would like to apply for the Master's Degree in English Language as a second language at your University in Portland Oregon, starting in February 2009. I am studying in my last semester in Bachelor of English Language with specialization in Teaching. I would like to continue my studies in order to gain applied knowledge and experiences by taking part of your master’s program. That is why, I would like to request for some important and pertinent information about the program I am interested in.

I would greatly appreciate it if you provide me with some information on the curricula of the Master degree, how long it lasts, what the schedule would be, what the admission requirements are, the costs and fees, and any further additional information I should be aware of. Please take into account that I am a foreign student for any possible international requirements that need to be covered up.

I have enclosed a self-addressed stamped envelope for your convenience. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. Thank you very much in advanced for your support.

Yours faithfully,

Hi again,

Here are some edits and suggestions.

Dear Dr. Wilson:

I recently learned of the Master's Degree in English as a Second Language that you are offering, and I would like to apply for admission in February 2009. <<<< You're a bit late Emotion: smile



I will complete my Bachelor of English Language with specialization in Teaching in December, 2009, atXXXXX University. I would then like to continue my studies in your Master program, in order to gain applied knowledge and experience.

So, I would greatly appreciate some information on the curriculum of the Master program, how long it lasts, what the schedule would be, the admission requirements, the costs and fees, and any further information you feel I should be aware of. Please take into account that I am a foreign student, in case there are any additional international requirements.

I have enclosed a self-addressed stamped envelope for your convenience. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. Thank you very much in advance for your support.



Yours sincerely,

Clive
