Motivation Letter for admission to Rotterdam School of Management (RSM)

Please help me...
I need to submit a motivational letter to apply to RSM... Could someone check, just in case. Essays aren't exactly my thing.
I'm not too sure about the language and formatting. My punctuation's a bit off too. Thank you in advance. : D

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am hereby applying for entrance for the International Business Administration programme at the Rotterdam School of Management for the 2014 fall term. In the following letter I will explain why I think that the RSM is the best university choice for me.
First of all I’d like to start with my biography. I was born in Kazakhstan. When I was six years old, due to my dad’s job transfer we had to move to Holland. My first school years took place there. I used to study in Junior School Diamanthorst (JSD) in Den Haag. But in four years we had to move to Italy (Milan). It wasn’t my first time settling in, so there were no problems with that. I studied in one of the most prestigious British schools in Italy, Sir James Henderson School (SJHS). I enjoyed science and mathematics a lot and I also spent most of my time in the library.

During my stay in Europe nearly every holiday we would travel. I’ve been to many places: UK, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, France and many other countries, once we even flew to Egypt. But soon, two years after we moved to Italy, we had to move back to my home country – Kazakhstan. For one year I studied in a school at Kazakh American University (KAU). Due to the circumstances I was transferred to Gymnasium No.79, which I currently study in.

One of the main reasons why I chose to engulf myself in the sphere of business is because of my aunt. She owns a business, it flourishes year by year. It slowly but gradually grows bigger and bigger. I always liked watching her conquer new heights and since I was a child I wanted to do something like that. I think it’s amazing that you start with nothing then one day it becomes something you always wished it would be. Business is an interesting sphere. In order it not to fail you ought to constantly work and work very hard. Every person and action counts. I’d like to learn how to help or guide a business that will change peoples lives, make it easier or more worth living.

Since I was a child I was always surrounded by all sorts of nationalities. Kazakhstan is a multinational country, also JSD and SJHS were in some way international. One of the things I really liked about my schools in Holland and Italy is that by communicating with each other we could easily exchange knowledge about our countries, broadening our horizons and getting to know different cultures in a much interesting way. I really enjoyed being among my international classmates and I’m very thankful to them for all the information that I gained, but I’m not ready to stop yet. I want to get to know more cultures, traditions, opinions and thoughts and in order to do that my future must be closely entwined with people other nationalities. So it’s pretty obvious why I chose an international programme.

After choosing what I wanted to do, came the hard part. Picking a university was not as easy as I though it was. It was hard to choose whether I should stay in Kazakhstan with my friends and family or go where I myself want to study. I missed Holland very much, so I made it quite clear that I’m leaving to follow my dreams. I contacted my friends, who still remain in Holland and asked them about the universities there. A lot of them mentioned RSM. Also my dad’s colleagues advised me to study there. After a little research, I figured that RSM is the perfect choice. It contained the bachelor programme that I was interested in, the cost was reasonable, the education’s language is English and other little details made RSM the best university choice for me.

In conclusion what I’d like to say is that I’m an ambitious person, when I have my mind set to accomplish something, then I’ll definitely reach my goal. I don’t want to work because of my own selfish needs, I wish to help the world develop. I’m also eager to make new experiences, meet new people, grow as a person and fall in love for Christ’s sake, but that’s a totally different story... Anyways, applying to the right university is only the first step, a fundamental step that is crucial for my future. I’m applying to RSM because I’m more than sure that this university will guide me to the life that I wish to live.
