Motivation letter for Higher Study Admission in Portuguese University

 


Motivation letter is an important part of the application process for higher education in abroad. Through this letter, selection committee in the admission board can understand applicant's commitment and interests to the higher study. The quality of the letter attests one's character, goals and ambitions. Basically, this letter signifies why you would be a good fit for your intended degree and the university you are applying to. Therefore, one should give proper time and attention to write a motivation letter before applying for higher education in an international university. 


In this blog, I have given an overview of a good motivation letter for academic purpose. I have been using this format for time being and have been successful to get admission for higher study in abroad including securing national and international scholarship. However, it’s not the rule of thumb which means it can be modified according to one's need and purpose and the course  applying to.
