Motivation Letter

Hi everyone,

Would please check my Motivation leter. i would appreciate your remarks.
Thanks a lot !
Dear Sir/Madame,
Hereby, I would like to outline my motivation for applying for the Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering for the academic year 2014-1015 at Delft University of Technology.
My name is Anas, born and raised in Morocco. Currently, staying in Malaysia Studying I am in my 2nd year of Bachelor majoring in Mechanical Engineering. English is the language I am using for my daily life, other than that I can speak fluently Arabic and French. I practice swimming and during my free time I play football. Since my early childhood, I had this passion for cars and especially from a the mechanical side, I remember back in those days that i was curious to the point of asking about anything related to cars, I would go down the street and my lucky day would be the one when i find someone working on his car. Spontaneously, i would go and start asking him questions as how this works and what is it for… Of course starting such conversations at my ages wasn’t that easy, luckily I’ve always managed to make it. With age my interests in this field got bigger and bigger. Meaning that in a way I had a brief idea about what type of studies I should be following. Once I was in high school, I opted for the Mechanical engineering major. It has helped me a lot in understanding the concept of mechanical engineering and technology.
When I graduated from high school I continued my studies in CGPE scientific. Where I studied one year then I made a drastic decision and decided that it’s best to go and study in Malaysia. I went there on my own, it was a whole new experience for me. Briefly, I just had to make my way. Fortunately thanks to my past English communication skills, communicating wasn’t much of a deal. Also, it has made adapting to the new lifestyle easier. Importantly, it gave me the opportunity to meet and interact with people from a large diversity of cultures whether local or international students.
During my last 2 years of high school i always managed to be from the top students of my class, especially in scientific subjects. After succeeding high school and thanks to my baccalaureate with a rating of good I ranked 3rd regionally in my major. Thus I was accepted in CPGE Scientific TSI.
After succeeding the first, I had acquired a lot of skills in scientific subjects. Though, this path was not going in parallel with system of studies that would lead to my aims.
Next I switched to Malaysia, where I was accepted in Multimedia University; Malaysia’s top private university. The university is a part of the Washington accord. Due to my financial status in that back then it was my only way to achieve my ambition. I took the English placement test and succeeded it. As a result of my academic background I was exempted from taking the foundation year.
Netherlands and precisely Delft University of Technology would be the best choice for me. Generally, Holland offers a home to many companies that are active in various engineering fields which would make easier finding the right industrial training. Not to mention Delft University is one of the leading European universities in engineering. I expect to take a master after graduation and start a successful career. The type of career that I’ve always yearned. Also I am familiar with the university’s lifestyle and I can easily interact with new cultures thanks to my experience stated before. I hope that Delft University would bring the best out of me.
I believe I am suitable to study Mechanical engineering in your prestigious university. I can quickly interact with new cultures which help in teamwork efficiency. I am open minded to new ideas. I can stretch my mind to understand closely new concepts. On top of that I am ambitious about what I want to do in life. I never back up when it comes to my plans in life. The proof I have left my country and flied 11000Km at the age of eighteen to achieve my aim. And I will not give up until I make it.

Thank you very much for considering my request. I am looking forward to your positive feedback.

Yours sincerely,
XXXXXXXXX

Hi,
  • Always use upper case 'I', whether in mid-sentence or as the first letter of your letter. The only exception is when you are referring to the letter 'i', in which case you have to use a lower case 'i'.
  • Try not to use contractions in formal letters (I've, I'm, I'd, etc.).
  • 'At my ages' does not exist. Try 'at my age'.

Thanks for the correction, I had no idea about the capital "i".
