The purpose of this letter is to apply for admission to the International Relations program of the [INSERT UNIVERSITY HERE] for the Fall 2011 session. I had begun my undergraduate degree at Virginia Commonwealth University in 2005 pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree. During these times, I had taken courses focusing on various subjects. After having completed 100 credits, I gained admission to the VCU Dental School but I had decided to leave the dental school to pursue my true passion in international politics. My first encounter with politics happened in 2005 when I took part in a rally for Kuwaiti women’s right to vote in the parliamentary elections. I have always believed strongly in women's right to vote, and I even joined a national committee to advocate this worthwhile case. The results of our advocacy had been substantial and Kuwaiti women had received their right to vote in May 2005. Aside from this, I also joined various committees which have been fighting against the political money corruption during Kuwaiti parliamentary elections. Thus, these involvements have whetted my appetite to be a part of the political arena.
While studying in the United States, I have been able to sharpen both my academic and intellectual skills. Exploring the American culture and interacting with Americans as well as different nationalities have helped in further understanding the different peoples' way of interaction. I firmly believe this experience will be an asset for my future career in global politics. With regards to my work experience, they have varied over the last few years. I have been a mentor at Cosby High School for two semesters and a teacher's assistant at the World Studies Department of the Virginia Commonwealth U...

The election night of 2000 was a pivotal moment in my life. I stayed up all night on November 7th, 2000, not because I was enthralled with watching Florida flip-flop between Gore and Bush, but because I had an IV in my arm which made it impossible to be comfortable. Earlier that evening, I was diagnosed with Type One Diabetes, a disease affecting 1 of 800 people in America. This was an especially crucial time in my life, considering I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis—an autoimmune disease that attacks the GI track in 1 of 1400 Americans—the June before, and I had my Bar-Mitzvah in September. According to the Jewish religion, I had become an adult, and as such, I had decided to greet my new medical challenges with gusto, attempting to see the silver lining from the very beginning. I cannot say that I am glad I was nature’s statistical anomaly, but I am thankful for the opportunity to see from a young age how to turn a tough situation into a positive. After almost nine years, I come back to this pivotal night in my life because it marked a change that still plays a part in my life now, and will continue to shape me in the future.
The experience of the APEC Youth Science festival was incredible. It has had an enormous impact on me in many ways, changing the way I look at the world and connecting me with people and events far beyond my formerly limited experience. I am extremely glad to have had this opportunity. It was a wonderful experience on multiple levels. It challenged me and expanded me intellectually and socially. I feel that this experience has had an immense impact on me.

With this, I humbly ask for the golden opportunity to be admitted to Stanford University.
I have always been someone that is afraid to fail. From such an early age as I can remember I didn’t like to be the loser in games or get questions wrong on my school work. To me failure meant that you weren’t good enough. My parents never really taught me otherwise. I don’t think my parents really felt that they had to go over failure with me even through college. I encountered many coaches throughout my soccer career and I was always the outstanding player on the team. I was used to winning, winning in games and in the classrooms.
I believe the knowledge we acquire in high schools and colleges is not an end to education, but rather a means to self-actualization and perfection. As a student, it is this belief that motivates my curiosity towards exploration and better understanding of my career path. To most children, the memory of being left in an alien environment at such a tender age may not be something to cherish. However, I distinctively cherish my first day in school because it offered me the opportunity to explore what I needed most. My good attitude towards education made it easier for me to adapt and engage with my teachers and fellow students. I count myself lucky to have started with a good early education. Our teachers made us draw pictures of objects we were familiar with, recited soothing poems and rhymes and made us believe that we were one family. As a young scholar, my attention and ability were drawn towards the physical environment and the things that made up the universe. For this case, science unravelled several mysteries while mathematics remained both a challenge and source of my joy. It was during these early
Everyone who wants to get a college education should have the chance, but for some students it can feel like there are too many barriers in the way. Applying to college is not an easy task. “My first piece of advice, is that you can do this!” says Sam Scoggin, dean of admissions at The International School of Dakar. “It may seem complicated and difficult at first,” he adds, but “there are potentially big rewards as a result of doing it!” Applying to college means more than just filling out forms. There are several steps to follow.

Vladimir Zhrinovsky once said, “ The matter of International relations is very subtle and exquisite.” International Studies has always been my passion. Everything relies on the concept of helping others without expecting any kind of recognition. The major of International studies is an interdisciplinary field that focuses on major political, economic, social, and cultural issues that predominate in the international agenda. Being a Foreign Service Officer and an International Economist are positions that I aspire to achieve.
