To Whom It May Concern:
I am greatly pleased that I have been accepted into your graduate program for Biology this coming academic year. I have learned about your scholarship program for students taking their Master’s degree in thefield and I am submitting my application for your consideration.I believe that I am qualified for your scholarship program having graduated with honors in my baccalaureate degree. I have already written several scientific papers which have been published in the university journal.
I deem myself capable of maintaining the good grades you require.Unfortunately, my family is facing a financial problem and this could hinder my study. Being granted a scholarship would be of great help to me. I have enclosed myapplication form as well as my academic record and certification of my financial status.
Thank you. I hope for your positive response.
Sincerely,Gordon Harper
