Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing this letter because I am interested in applying for a grant to study at the Department of Applied Language Studies in the academic years 2007-2008. Lessius University College is one of our partner institution for languages and therefore I would like to continue my study for one year in Belgium and follow the programme â3^rd year Bachelor Applied Language Studies: German-Frenchâ.
Currently, Iâm taking courses such as: Aspects of Legal French, Environment in Germany, French Language, French Grammar, Introduction to French Translation, German Language, Theory and Practice of German Translation,â¦ It has given me a good base to be able to study abroad.
As a student of âModern Languages: German-Frenchâ at the University of Central Lancashire, I have the opportunity to spent the third year abroad. I have opted to study as an Erasmus exchange student in Belgium, because, once I will have graduated, I hope to find a job there. French~~, but also~~ and , to a lesser degree, German are popular languages in Belgium. Furthermore, I definitely would like to learn Dutch. The reason for this is due to the fact that, after several visits to your country, I have become attracted by the Belgian culture and language. Studying abroad gives me the opportunity to immerse myself in the Belgian culture and possibly become more fluent in the language.
Although I already followed a summer course in Dutch in the Netherlands a few years ago, my knowledge of this language is not yet intimate enough. As a consequence, I am willing to take the Crash Course Dutch, which is organized by Lessius University College to allow students to follow courses taught in Dutch.
Moreover, spending a year abroad gives me the chance to discover new strengths and abilities. I will encounter situations which are unfamiliar to me. I am highly motivated to meet this new challenge, which will probably make me become more independent. In my opinion, it will be a life-changing experience.
I hope to be accepted as an applicant in the academic years 2007-2008. I am confident that I fulfill all requirements.
I look forward to receiving your reply. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours sincerely,

Apart from that one minor change, it looks fine.

please help me with this formal letter to a university! It's urgent!

Dear Sir, Dear Madam

Re: work placement

I study Modern Applied Languages (LEA) at the UniversitÃ© de Bretagne Occidentale in Brest and I am currently looking for a 3-month work placement in a British translation company. This work placement will be the conclusion of my Bachelor.

My courses range from English and German to economics and law. I also passed a scientific Baccalaureate (the equivalent of the British A-Level): I had the chance to attend many different kinds of courses which is an advantage in translation.

I already had the occasion to see what the translatorâs job is made of. I translated for example articles and lyrics for a bandâs fan site. In my courses in France, I had different translation courses (translation from French to English or from English to French, consecutive interpretingâ¦). I spent the second year of my degree abroad in Germany where I attended a German-English translation course.

Next year, I will apply for a master in translation either in France or abroad.

Iâm actually available for this work placement from the 15^th February and always available for further questions or for a possible interview.

Yours sincerely

Dear Sirs,

I saw your advertisement for a Business Unit Manager on the website of ***, and this position interests me very much.

I graduated from a ãGrande Ecoleãwith two majors: international strategic management and consulting, and marketing offer strategic piloting (this doesn't mean anything to me, I don't think your translation has quite worked -Strategic Marketing and advertising perhaps? Offer and piloting are definitely wrong here), and since graduating Iâve built a solid knowledge of marketing and sales. Furthermore, as a Chinese person, my stay in France has enabled me to improve my French in order to work well in a company, and to integrate well in a team.

Having a passion for these industries, I am especially interested by a position in your company. In fact, your reputation in the word of education has immediately called my attention and I really want to specialize in this field. Moreover, I have already completed internships in China and in France, during which I have compared the cultural and commercial differences of these two countries. Today, I am multiculturally minded, and I hope to work to apply all my knowledge to international projects.

In order to prove my motivation and my competence in detail, I would appreciate the opportunity to meet you during an interview. I am at your disposal for any information and I am waiting for your future contact.

Thank you for your consideration.

Yours sincerely,

Dear sir or madam (capital s & m)

I am writing to apply for the International Master's program with the intention of showing my interest and motivation in being admitted.

My aim is to work in an international field of work related to communication. Therefore I want to gain a deeper empirical knowledge in communication networks as well as improve my personal skills. I was very impressed by the international climate of the *** school when I visited the *** university's website and very interested when I discovered the numerous cultural activities that it provides for its students.

I completed my Bachelor of science degree in âcomputer science applied for managementâ which is the translation of the French appelation: âinformatique appliquÃ© Ã la gestionâ at the faculty of Economic Sciences and Management at the University of ***.

During my studies I have enjoyed empirical tasks and I always felt at ease when I was involved in practical and concrete projects, as a result I had had many opportunities to participate in the achievement of such a projects.

Furthermore, to prepare myself and to demonstrate my interest in this master, I have been taking additional English courses at *** since September of last year and now I am preparing for the TOEFL exam on August 26th, thus an email will be sent to you at ***@hkkl.co 15 business days later with my results. In addition I took Italian language classes at the âIstituito Italiano di Culturaâ and participated in cultural events such as: attending Italian fashion days and information days about studying in Italy at the institute, and going to concerts, balais and movies at the "ThÃ©atre municipale". I am always interested in discovering new cultures, especially Mediterranean ones, and above all Italian and Roman culture. I do not know exactly why, but I do feel close to the Italian culture.

I enjoy management and organization tasks in my free time that will be, I think, a good combination between management and technical skills. In fact, as a member of AIESEC*, I learned how to organize seminars and congresses and how to conduct discussion forums and presentations. I think this experience will help me very much, especially when working in today's global environment. In this respect I also want to mention that I am someone who is hard working, reliable, very organized and open mind.

I have previous work experience at an Italian textile company so I have already worked and lived in your country and would welcome an opportunity to gain further experince.In addition I have done two internships, which were not obligatory, to gain additional practical experience .I tremendously enjoyed my experience working at CNI (Centre National de l'Informatique) as it was as close as possible to the communication and network field. It was really a terrific experience, because there I had the opportunity to take part in an interesting project with a very qualified team. (what was the other internship?)

I am convinced that the *** school has an excellent reputation in this kind of program. In fact it is one of the best specialized schools in Italy. I have already visited the master website at http://*** and looked into the course program. I found it the most suitable for my aptitudes and ambitions.

yours sincerely

In addition, and inspired by my eager for working I did two internships, which are not obligatory, so for to gain additional practical experience .I tremendously enjoyed my experience working at CNI (Centre National de l'Informatique) where my last studies project was done. I choose it to be as close as possible to communication and network field (or fields). It was really a terrific experience, because there I had the opportunity to take part in an interesting project with a very qualified team.

In summary, both internships have provided me with a deeper insight to the subject of my studies.

Also, I am convinced that the *** school has an excellent reputation in this kind of program. In fact it is one of the best specialized schools in Italy. I have already visited the master website at http://*** and took a deep view on the course program, really I found it the most suitable for my aptitudes and desires.

Hello,

i study technician engineering in germany and my last english lesson is about 7 years ago. I've wrote an application in german, but i need an english translation too. Therefore i have used a translator.
But I think there are a lot of mistakes and grammer errors.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Sir or Madam,

I fought by the studies with ambition and will-power I and have won. Interest in technical connections woken to the industry mechanic in the education hardened during the studies.

Determined employees speed up your renowned enterprise.

My theoretical and practical experiences correspond to your applicant image. I like to meet new challenges again and again.

To safeguard the success permanently, further education and additional qualifications are necessary. For this reason I have acquired knowledge in trend-setting technologies and passed the instructor aptitude test in the area of the motor vehicle and laser technology. During the studies I worked on different projects like device construction.

My special competence and my know-how help to get to realize visions. Autonomy and team ability as well honour me. Counting reliability, positive appearance, good manners and a neat phenotype, as one of my natural character. I like of flexibility, mobility and good linguistic proficiency to give proof and let me represent your enterprise internationally.

I like to await the invitation for a personal conversation and remain yours sincerely from Dortmund.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you understand the following writing? this text must not be correct

The hardness is the resistance of a body to the penetrating of another body.

There are static test procedures and dynamic

Static: Brinell

Rockwell Vickers

Dynamic: Poldi

At the hardness test procedure to Brinell a hard metal ball is the printed to priifenden Werkstiickes with a fixed load to the surface. Soft materials are checked mostly.

The load of the examining ball is hitlessly carried out. The burden soaking time is between 10 and 30 seconds.

The lasting diameter is measured in the Werkstiick after the load time.

In the hardness examination after Vickers a pyramid is printed to the material surface. The VickershÃ¤rte is independent of the Priifkraft. A double strength produces a double one pressure surface, the hardness value remains the same. The load of the Priifkugel is bumplessly carried out. The load soaking time is between 10 and 30 seconds. The diagonals of the imprint are measured after that and from this the hardness determines. The strength is chosen so this the diagonal is not material thickness more greatly than 0.67 times.

A ball or ninepin is measured in the surface layer of the work short cord to be checked pushed and the lasting one pressure depth at the HarteprÃ¼fung to Rockwell. At first the examinee is charged by 98 newtons and in which the ball squeezes into the material. After that becomes the burden at Rockwell B by 883 newtons or a complete burden of 981 newtons or 1471 newtons surrenders to 1373 newtons at Rockwell C increased by what. The hardness value can be read from a screen.

A diamond ninepin is printed into the material at C. The expiry is at B, for at once the expiry the burden is increased by 1373 newtons, though. The complete burden then yields. The maximum penetration depth is 0.2 millimetres. The ninepin penetrates the hardness 0. is one this way it penetrates the hardness 100 is not one.

A lot of work but i hope you can help me with the application.

Thanks
Andy

Hello Andreas,

You can't really depend on such online translation softwares. You will always end up with innumerable mistakes in sentence structure AND grammar. My advice to you is to try write the application letter in English yourself. Then post it again here to be corrected.

Start your letter with "I am writing to apply for the position of ... " And then you can write in details about your qualifications and experience.

Kat
