Your motivation letter is often the only place in your application where you can speak about yourself instead of your marks. 🗣️
Here it’s just you, explaining why the course and university are the right fit.
Start with a specific reason rather than a general one. Universities read hundreds of applications, so you won’t stand out by saying ‘I’ve always loved science.’ Instead, tell them ‘I want to study marine biology here because I’m interested in joining Dr William’s coral reef research team.’
Keep it clear, honest and let your voice shine through!
