Scholarship Application Letter

L.L.M. Environmental and Natural Resources Law and Policy

To Whom it May Concern:

My name is …. and I am writing in application for a scholarship to assist me

throughout my time studying in the Environmental and Natural Resources LLM

program at the University of Denver.

Being awarded the chance to study further in my field at the University of Denver is an

incredible opportunity for me and one I intend to seize wholeheartedly without

reservation. I have consistently proven throughout my previous studies and working

experience than when presented with an opportunity I will strive as hard as I can to best

represent myself and reward those who have granted me a chance to prove such. This is

evident in my continuing relations with University of ____ and my professional mentors

at _____in Santiago, Chile. Despite financial hardship I have always done what is

necessary to further my studies and work experience. This includes six months of Pro

Bono work helping the poor here in Chile in family trials as well as two solid years of

balancing paralegal work alongside my study commitments in order to be able to pay the

very considerable fees required to study law in Chile.

Relocating from Santiago, Chile for the duration of the program represents a huge

challenge and while it is one I am fully committed to, it does present considerable

financial strain. I will be doing my utmost to not let this effect my participation and

concentration required to gain as much as I can from the program. I am, however, also

relocating with my wife and as such will have a greatly increased financial burden to

overcome throughout this coming time.

As partners, my wife and I are both committed to ensuring that this will be a successful

period for the both of us. My wife will be looking for work opportunities wherever she

can study in Denver. Hence, leaving our home in Chile and relocating to Denver with the

increasing cost of flights, accommodation and living expenses it is certain to be a

challenging time.

This scholarship represents to me an opportunity to fully focus my attention on the main

objective of achieving the best I can in the Environmental and Natural Resources

program. I will strive to be a representative and ambassador of University of Denver

throughout my future career and am very thankful to be able to attend this course. I thank

you for taking the time to evaluate this application and look forward to arriving in Denver

soon.

Sincerely,
