RE: Application for [NAME of SCHOLARSHIP] cover letter

Dear Name of Head of Scholarship Committee:

Always knowing what I wanted to do with my life may sound like a cliché but this is true

in my case. I have yearned to be a chemical engineer since childhood. I am compelled and

fascinated by the field due to the numerous processes it has to ensure quality output. I have put

extra efforts in studying sciences, and this has led to winning an award in chemical sciences. For

me to achieve my goals, I have realized I need to pursue masters and even Ph.D. levels in the

course. I am happy about my future and have a feeling that with your scholarship grant, I will

achieve my dreams as an engineer.

I am from Vietnam where I live with my parents. I attended high school in Vietnam and

later joined Houston Community College where I am currently an international student in my

second year undertaking chemical engineering. I would like to transfer and study at the

University of Houston once I complete my studies at the college and continue pursuing chemical

engineering. My hobbies are swimming and reading inspirational books.

The applications of both life and physical sciences integrated with economics and applied

mathematics has been my area of fascination. Chemical Engineering offers education in these

fields regarding production, transformation, transportation and proper use of chemicals, energy,

and materials. It is, therefore, my passionate field and my goal is pursuing the course up to the

Ph.D. levels. These will enable me to gain more and thorough understanding of these processes

as well as their applications.

Being passionate about chemical engineering, my career goals are to entirely work in the

field and taking part in the various processes involved in chemical engineering. Being a

chemical engineer, I will take an integral part and ensure proper designing of the large scale

processes employed in the conversion of chemicals, living cells, raw materials, and resources as

well as energy and microorganisms into relevant and useful products. I also hope to work in a

chemical reaction facility as an engineer, design and oversee the construction of various

chemical plants, design and analyze various chemical processes as well as ensure proper and safe

transportation of chemicals.

Being a tutor and mentoring potential chemical engineers is another career goal I would like to

achieve. This may be in colleges or universities where I pass down information and knowledge

gained over the years to other future engineers as well as interacting with them in practical and

field studies on the same. Being a mentor and guiding younger generation is part of my career

dreams. With the current climate change due to global warming that is mainly caused by

greenhouse gases and waste products, my goal is to mitigate the situation and come up with

adaptive measures. This is because chemical engineering is also applied in waste management

programs as well as research in pollution control. This will ensure proper use of materials likely

to cause global warming as well as researching on various issues such as the production of

environmentally friendly materials and proper waste disposal methods.

The most significant contribution of the scholarship is financial support. Coming from a

humble background, I have struggled in my entire academic life. Winning your scholarship will

give me a breakthrough in the pursuit of my goals. Knowing what I want to do, I am inclined to

choose University of Houston to pursue my dreams. Getting awarded the scholarship will enable

me to gain entry into the institution since I will be considered as a capable student. Your

scholarship will also make me more attractive and presentable in the job market since it will be

regarded as a great accomplishment. This will enable me to work in a prestigious industry as

well as institutions as a tutor. Admission in a prestigious and resourceful university under your

scholarship will allow me to spend more time on the vast resources provided to enhance my

knowledge and skills. This will be through volunteer opportunities, internships, and attachments

as well as service-learning.

The reason why I deserve the scholarship is mainly my background. My family does not

have financial capabilities to pay my fees and sustain me in school throughout the academic

calendar. Regarding performance, I am above average. I have won awards in sciences and also

participated in various educational activities. Also, I have defined education and career goals

that will keep me focused in school ensuring proper use and utilization of your scholarship.

Sincerely,

Signature of Applicant
