&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#00"&gt;I&amp;#39;m writing this letter to show my desire to apply for the master program at the&amp;nbsp;*** University for the 2008- 2009 study year about *** European Studies. In the following letter I would like to present my reasons for choosing this program and to provide a general background about me. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#00"&gt;First of all I would like to introduce myself. My name is ***&amp;nbsp; *** and I am from Cyprus. As you know Cyprus is the last divided country in Europe for many decades. I live in Northern part of the island, which is not legally &lt;span&gt;&lt;font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ff00;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;recognizd&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt; country. I have lived and studied in Cyprus until I graduated from &lt;span&gt;Famagusta&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Maarif&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; College, than I start studying in Ä°stanbul, Marmara &lt;span&gt;&lt;font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ff00;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Univeristy&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt; about Economics.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#00"&gt;My major is Economics however I have studied some lectures related on &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Europen&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Union Studies and I give special importance on Europe, I have studied one year in Lithuania, Vilnius as an &lt;span&gt;erasmus&lt;/span&gt; student. From that time, I interested more in European Studies, European Politics and it&amp;#39;s relations. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#00"&gt;During my bachelor studies I was also the member of Cyprus Youth Platform, which is the largest student association targeting &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;TurkishCypriot&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;students who are studying abroad. Currently I am the President of Cyprus Youth Platform, which is located in Turkey, England, Germany, USA and have representatives in Canada, France, &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ukrain&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and Netherlands. Currently under the name of Cyprus Youth Platform, I have joined many conferences about Europe and Euro-Med region, create many projects which are funded by United Nations Development Program (&lt;span&gt;UNDP&lt;/span&gt;) and European Union. Projects mostly aimed on Unification of the island, Re-&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;approachment&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; between &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TurkishCypriots&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;GreekCypriots&lt;/span&gt;,&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;approachment&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; of &lt;span&gt;TurkishCypriots&lt;/span&gt; to European Union and increasing their integration with Europe, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;Rehabilating&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;Cypriots with peace culture. Out of this âmacro aspectsâ Cyprus Youth Platform aim to develop solutions to students and youth problems, increasing awareness, socialization and preventing degeneration of youth, fighting with drug addiction, sexual &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;harrashment&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#00"&gt;The main reason why I am applying this program is that out of &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;pratically&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, I want to improve myself in theoretically about Europe. After finishing &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;succsessfully&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;this program I would like to create benefits for Cyprus. For this prospect living and studying in *** will give me high &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;opportunites&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt; I found that with high number of foreign students, unique character of the program and its multidisciplinary approach, combining political science, history, international relations, culture and economics *** University is the best place to mastering about European Studies. Especially with the possibility to choose different study tracks, either specialising in âEuropean international politicsâ or in âEuropean politics and administrationâ make this program is the best for my future prospects.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#00"&gt;Finally, I think *** University is an excellent place to start my career and the program seems like the perfect opportunity for me to meet other cultures, learn another language and experience European education system as well as gain more independence.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#00"&gt;Please find enclosed my curriculum vitae, certificate and my degrees/ diplomas with marks, inquires, references as per the requirements of application. Kindly contact me if you require any further details or documents. I hope to hear from you in the near future.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Great motivation letter, it`s good, just correct the misspellings that is typed in yellow :) &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Good Luck &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Correct order of professional titles after name</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/CorrectOrderProfessionalTitles-AfterName/zkrbn/post.htm#466765</link><pubDate>Sun, 20 Jan 2008 19:56:10 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:466765</guid><dc:creator>Clive</dc:creator><description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;I have a BSC (hons) degree and a SAC Dip, the degree was first&amp;nbsp; then the diploma but I am in the process of joining goverening bodies for my profession. I am wondering what order do i need to write these titles in and also do i use the titles when filling in forms such as a passport or job application or do i just&amp;nbsp; use them when writing letters. I am confused and cannot find any where online that provides the information&lt;/FONT&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The principle of 'lowest first, highest last' was suggested earlier in this thread.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I am currently renewing my passport, and I can tell you that, at least in Canada, educational information is not asked for.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;For a job application, in my experience, educational qualifications are dealt with on one's resume/CV.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Generally speaking, people don't seem to list such things after their name when writing letters, with the occasional exceptuion of a doctorate. I guess it woud ultimately depend on what type of letter you are writing, and to whom.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Again generally speaking, such things are more commonly mentioned if you work in an academic setting.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Best wishes, Clive&lt;/P&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Pls I need help for my letter of application</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/LetterApplication/zzlwm/post.htm#445497</link><pubDate>Fri, 23 Nov 2007 15:17:27 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:445497</guid><dc:creator>Clive</dc:creator><description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;Dear Sir,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;With this letter, I would like to
apply for the Bachelor of Professional Communication scholarship for studying
at *** for the academic year 2007.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;I graduated with double diploma
namely Advertising and Marketing Communication in 2006 from Institute of Advertising
and Communication training (IACT) in Malaysia. While pursuing my
studies, I slowly took keen interest in the Public Relations industry where I
found that the art of communication and the skill of writing are crucial could
result in significant difference for a company.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;During my two and the half years learning
in IACT, I was awarded with the &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;âBest Student in Public Relationsâ &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;in
my batch for performing well in the subject. This award allows me to prove my ability
in the public relation industry where I was chosen as the best out of 200
students. During the first semester of study, I took part in &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Yahoo!
InterAd Campaign 2005&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; where we competed against universities and
colleges all over to world by designing an Integrated Marketing Communication
(IMC) campaign for Yahoo!. However, being fresh and new to the advertising and
marketing industry, we are unable to perform as professionally as the veterans.
Instead, we obtained sound experience which is unattainable from the text book.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;In order to enhance my portfolio
and to gauge my capability, I took part in the &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;BLINK Project&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; during my
second year of study. This competition was organized by Unilever, an international
manufacturer of leading brands in foods, home care and personal care. We were
required to design a new media to capture the consumer attention and to
increase the sales of the product. We got the opportunity to advertise our idea
in front of the executives and even managers from Unilever which serve as a
good experience for us. Finally, our team of 5 emerged as the champion and had
been given the opportunity to participate in &lt;i&gt;AdAsia 2005 &lt;/i&gt;which was held in Singapore - a premier event that
executives in the advertising and marketing communications industry.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;In year 2006, I took part in the &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Cineleisure
Competition&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; organized by Cathay Organisation, a leading company engaged
in the business of entertainment, leisure, lifestyle and property management services.
We were requested to design an IMC campaign for the newly open Cathay
Cineleisure Complex in Malaysia.
We were to contend against 13 teams from Malaysia
ranging from universities to colleges, for instance, Monash University
and Universiti Malaya (The Malayan University). As a result, we succeed in astonishing
the judges with our dazzling ideas and emerged as the winning team.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;During my studies in IACT, I
joined the CREACTIVE Student Advertising Agency as a Project Coordinator.
CREACTIVE is the very first Student Advertising Agency formed by various
talents. We do almost anything from art directing and copywriting to market
research and corporate profiles to satisfy our clients needs. We deal with real
clients such as XFresh, Malaysian Advertisers Association (MAA), Trident Group
and etc. My role in the organization is mainly to deal with all paper works ranging
from preparing agenda, WIP report, call for meetings, organize events, and meet
up with clients and also to handle the account for the organization. Throughout
the two years in CREACTIVE, I was given the opportunity to deal with real
clients who widen my exposure, allowing me to apply all theories Iâve learnt in
real cases. During this time, I explored several latent aspects of my
personality. I developed my inter-personal skills while successfully organizing
all events. Besides, it brought to surface my ability to work hard and with
sincerity, persistence, motivation, and resilience. In addition, I learned how an
organization functions, how to communicate with the graphic designers and AEs, ways
to prepare agenda and WIP while others have totally no idea on the meaning of
agenda and WIP. I believed that CREACTIVE had definitely built a great platform
for my future.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;It was also during my learning
years in IACT that allow me to undergo a 3 months industry training program. I
joined the PR department in MDK Consultants Pte Ltd (&lt;a href="http://www.mdk.com/" target="_blank" title="http://www.mdk.com/"&gt;www.mdk.com&lt;/a&gt;) â one of Singapore's leading public
relations consultancies and the only truly Asian homegrown network which has
offices in Malaysia and Thailand and a network of strategic affiliates in
Australia, Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Indonesia, Korea, and Japan. MDK is also
part of the world's largest communication company, WPP Group plc. During the 3
months internship period, I was fortunate enough to learn from the senior on
how to deal with different clients and satisfying their needs. In addition, I
learned ways of preparing media materials which helps in improving my writing
skills. I aided my seniors in handling clients such as Nickelodeon, AIROD,
Avenue K, SONY and etc. This provides me a great platform to the introduction
of the public relations industry,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;After completing my diploma
course, I pursue my career as a PR Coordinator in Vibes Communications â a
full-fledged agency with 14 years of experience in the advertising and
marketing industry with its headquarter in Singapore. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;My role
in the company was to handle all paper works which includes preparing media
materials, monthly report and etc. In addition, I assisted in organizing
events, meeting clients and visit the media from time to time in order to build
an intimate relationship with them. The main clients that I deal with are
Cathay Pacific Airways, BRANDS Essence of Chicken, NIKE, MTV and etc. Throughout
the 3 months in the company, I gained a lot of knowledge and have a better understanding
towards the PR industry. I believed that I have understood the nature of PR
better than before. As a result, I grow more interested in the PR
industry. &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="3"&gt;I hope that I will be accepted as
an applicant of the Scholarship Program in the 2007 academic years. I am

&lt;P&gt;Sub: Application for ABC Scholarship Program, 2006-07&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Dear Sir,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;With this letter, I would like&amp;nbsp;to apply for the ABC Scholarship Program for studying at UNIV, France for a period of 8 months beginning September, 2006. I am currently undergoing MBA education at CURRENTUNIV and will be going to UNIV as part of student exchange programme at CURRENTUNIV. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have completed my graduation in Mechanical Engineering from LASTUNIV. I have always maintained excellent record in academics whether it is school, LASTUNIV or currently, CURRENTUNIV. In addition to my academic activities, I have also had a chance to take part in many social volunteer activities like &lt;EM&gt;NSS&lt;/EM&gt; which gave me experiences in working selflessly for others. During this time, I explored several latent aspects of my personality. I developed my inter-personal skills while successfully organizing the sports events during ZEST 2004. Besides, it brought to surface my ability to work hard and with sincerity, persistence, motivation, and resilience. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Now, at CURRENTUNIV, I have only added to my personality as well as my achievements. I was nominated for the &lt;EM&gt;Best All-rounder Award&lt;/EM&gt; in my batch for performing well in academics, sports as well as other extra-curricular activities throughout the 1&lt;SUP&gt;st&lt;/SUP&gt; year. I have always dreamt of being an entrepreneur and my entrepreneurial skills have also come to the fore with &lt;EM&gt;ATAT Business Leadership Award, 2006&lt;/EM&gt; which I won from the institute, making it to National Finals. Not only this, I am also member of the core team of a mutual fund named &lt;EM&gt;CCap, &lt;/EM&gt;founded last year by the students of CURRENTUNIV. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;France is a developed country with a great history. French culture and language are the two things that have really fascinated me and that I am keen on learning about. Also, UNIV currently ranks among the topmost universities in Europe for its MBA education. I would certainly learn a lot, not only in Finance which is my field of interest but it would also add value to my entrepreneurial bent of mind. In addition, working and attending this master course, I will have opportunities to meet people from various nations and cultures, offering me different points of view and contributing to my flexibility and creativity, besides the cultural and language gains.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;But one of the blockages at this stage, in my having a great learning experience at UNIV, is funding of expenses. I come from a middle class family and my father can afford a part of but not the full expenses (details of which have been enclosed). My education at CURRENTUNIV is also being funded through the loan taken from a bank. Hence, I would certainly need a financial aid in the form of a scholarship.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I hope that I will be accepted as an applicant and a beneficiary of the ABC Scholarship Program in the 2006â07 academic years. I am confident that I am qualified and prepared to meet all requirements of the scholarship.&amp;nbsp;I would be grateful if you could give my application your most favorable consideration.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Please find enclosed my curriculum vitae, copies of letter of admission, school leaving certificate and my degrees/diplomas with marks, as per the requirements of application. Kindly contact me if you require any further details or documents. I hope to hear from you in the near future.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Yours faithfully,&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I would like to apply for the masterÂ´s programme &lt;EM&gt;in &lt;/EM&gt;Comparative Labour and Organisation Studies. &lt;EM&gt;(end sentence)&lt;/EM&gt;Please let me explain my motivation in a few words.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I am a student in communication science and I am also taking a minor in labour studies. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Last year I participated in a bachelor seminar at the ISHSS&lt;EM&gt; (delete comma)&lt;/EM&gt; &amp;nbsp;and working &lt;EM&gt;(delete word)&lt;/EM&gt;with international students turned out to be a great learning experience. I was very delighted to discover that the ISHSS offers &lt;EM&gt;(different to what) &lt;/EM&gt;masters programmes. &lt;EM&gt;(apostrophes not used in plurals! Removed throughout your letter. This is a very bad habit of yours)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;Since I was already taking an elective course in the field of labour and organisation studies at that time &lt;EM&gt;(at what time - when you were on the seminar? make that clear), &lt;/EM&gt;the COLOS programme immediately draw my attention. For this masters&amp;nbsp;programme, sufficient knowledge in the field of labour and organisation studies is required. Therefore I enrolled in the &lt;EM&gt;specialised programme 'Labour Studies'&lt;/EM&gt; at the Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies in September last year. Besides learning more about the field of labour and organisation studies, this programme offered me the opportunity to find out whether I would like to continue my studies within this field. After attending the mini lectures and programme meetings at ISHSS this year and my learning experience within the labour studies programme, I was even more convinced that the answer to &lt;EM&gt;(typo)&lt;/EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;this question is yes.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;During my studies&amp;nbsp;I have&lt;EM&gt; also&lt;/EM&gt; been working for a television production company &lt;EM&gt;in&amp;nbsp;its&lt;/EM&gt; department of communications. The company was faced with a fast changing market and in order to maintain their competitive advantage &lt;EM&gt;(singular),&lt;/EM&gt; they had to reorganize its organizational structure. &lt;EM&gt;I found this part&amp;nbsp;of my work&lt;/EM&gt; experience the most interesting. I was a member of&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;the&lt;/EM&gt; task force &lt;EM&gt;that&lt;/EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;was responsible for presenting a proposal for a new organizational structure. Although I was responsible for a &lt;EM&gt;small&lt;/EM&gt; part of the whole organizational change process, the professional consultants with whom I was working&amp;nbsp;gave me an inside look&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;at&lt;/EM&gt; the complete process. Through this experience I realized I was eager to learn more on this topic. Organizational change involves much more then presenting a new structure and strategy on paper. It involves redesigning jobs, &lt;EM&gt;the training of&lt;/EM&gt; employees and sometimes the firing of employees. &lt;EM&gt;This also increased my interest in&lt;/EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;matters involving the labour market. I decided to complete my bachelors degree in communication science, taking as many courses &lt;EM&gt;as&lt;/EM&gt; possible in business and communication and switch to a different masters programme that would fit my interest in labour and organisation better. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The COLOS programme offers an exciting interdisciplinary scenario, in which I will have the opportunity to expand my knowledge in the field of labour and organisation studies and to learn from recognized &lt;EM&gt;scientists&lt;/EM&gt; from different disciplines. Studying with both national and international students adds a special element to the programme, which I highly appreciate. Studying at the ISHSS within the COLOS masters programme would enable me to develop a strong background of knowledge and improve my English language skills. This would make it possible for me to pursue a career as an advisor for labour organisations.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Considering my qualifications and interests outlined above and in my CV, I very much hope that you will consider me for the COLOS masters programme. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Yours faithfully, (sincerely only if letter addressed to named person, a dear 'sir' etc letter must finish with faithfully.)&lt;/P&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
