Could someone check out my letter? it would be a great help to me

Dear Mr or Miss,

I write you because I want to apply for the xxx Master’s Program at the University of xxx.

Despite of my strong background in Business as well as in Market Research and Techniques I always felt that my moral principles do not belong to the business field, but to humanitarian relief. In this way, I always bear in mind to do a work that has a positive and gratifying effect on society rather than making huge profits for a big company. Therefore, to be chosen in this program it would help me to correct the situation and focus on- what I am really fascinated to do- helping the most disadvantaged.

Along these lines, I gain excellent knowledge and experience in several disciplines of management and know how on a research project that able me to be a multi-skilled person with a great development potential. Moreover, during my experience as researcher I became truly fascinated about this field and its enormous possibilities of application in the real life. So that, I believe if I could combine the stated discipline with thoroughly knowledge taught by the xxx Master’s Program in the field of humanitarian relief it would equip me with high proficiency to develop my vocational profession as research in the field where I really want to be part in. The fact that the program combines academic and practical experience is exceptional and this will definitely improve even more my methodological knowledge and technical assistance expertise with which I will able to make a real difference through my work in the discipline of international cooperation.

Outside the academic context, I am keen on learning about foreign cultures and exchanging ideas with people from different backgrounds. As a result, I enjoy travelling and understanding how dissimilar environments result in different traditions and social behaviors which makes me have an immense respect for diversity. Proof of this is that I spent 9 months- scholarship living in xxx and now I reside in the xxx three-year now, in both places I have established numerous friendships with native citizens which highly enriched my cultural background and significantly broadened my horizons. The fact that I am passionate for languages as well as have the ability to learn new ones, I am fluent in Spanish and Catalan (mother tongues) and English, besides having an intermediate knowledge of Dutch, gave me the advantage to work with Anglophone and Hispanic areas.

Being from Spain, I am witness to see a myriad of immigrants coming from Africa and trying to cross the border in any way in order to reach Europe. Because of that, I am aware of the benefits of Humanitarian Action and this notion has always been my main motivation to work in Humanitarian Aid. Therefore, taking part in the xxx Master’s will compliment my background and help me fulfill my future career plans which are to become a great researcher in humanitarian field. Thereby, I am drawn to the Master’s Programme offered by the University of xxx because of its multidisciplinary nature which provides a diversity of viewpoints and expertise. I am also interested in the bringing together of academic and practical experience that the program provides.

In line with my plans to work full-time in the area of humanitarian aid and assistance I see this program as an indispensable step towards that goal.

I thank you for considering my application and look forward to your favourable reply.

Yours sincerely,

xxxx
