If you are a foreign student, you should probably include that in your approach. If not, I would start by listing for yourself by priority the number 1, 2 and 3 fields of study you want. You should write one Letter of Intent for each of the programs of interest. You can include in your opening statement that you are considering additional areas of study as well. (This is better than saying “I am undecided.”) In #1, talk about why you want to do #1 coursework. In #2, #2 coursework…,etc. Be concise, not too LONG. I would not go over 3 pages. But try to include ALL the reasons you like that field and why you have the interest, how you want to see that field change, what you have to offer to work toward positive changes, etc.

Previous ‘work-related’ experiences, if positive, can help. Ask yourself if it presents a positive image of you and your future aspirations. Sometimes even failing can be positive if you learned a good thing about yourself or an industry.

I hope some of this helps…and I know feedback is golden.

I agree with CanProf but would also recommend the use of spell check! I’m not trying to be mean or anything but there are a lot of spelling errors in what you just typed and that will not look good in seeking a higher education.

My best advice is to write it out however you wish and then get one of your professors with whom you are on good terms — presumably one who is going to write a letter of recommendation for you — to look it over and give criticism. Then take that criticism very, very seriously. This is better than any abstract suggestions I can give a priori.

Good luck.
