Subject: Application for admission to the Master’s in History

Boulogne, May 19, 2019

Dear Sir or Madam,

Eager to continue my academic journey in the field of history, I am writing to submit my application for your university’s Master’s program.

My motivations for applying are diverse.

First of all, I have dedicated nearly my entire academic career to developing expertise in history and geography. After graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in History in 2019, I acquired knowledge that makes me confident in the relevance of this decision, as it stems from my deep desire to pursue a career in heritage professions. Moreover, my university background allows me to expect a seamless integration into your program.

Beyond my personal qualifications, it is the reputation of your institution and the quality of your teaching that have led me to apply. The fame of your faculty and the curriculum content are well-established and were decisive factors in submitting my application.

I aspire to join a research institute specialized in the Middle East, and in that regard, your program seems ideal. Of North African origin, I am fluent in Arabic and French and have advanced proficiency in Spanish and English. I believe being quadrilingual is essential in research professions, which are now operating on a global scale.

I also demonstrate broad openness of mind, as my interests span travel, cinema, economics, new technologies, and environmental issues.

Well-presented and possessing strong interpersonal skills, I am dynamic, serious, capable, and highly motivated.

I hope my application meets with your approval and that you may offer me the opportunity to present my motivations in person. Please accept, Sir or Madam, the assurance of my highest consideration.

Kind regards,

Julien
