D. Abstraction Purposes of a College Admission Letter
(20 Minutes)
A college admission letter is written by students for the following purposes:
1. to express their main reason for choosing a certain school for college; and
2. to persuade the admissions committee that they are a good fit for the school.
Common Features of a College Admission Letter
Heading
The heading contains the return address with the date on the last line.
Inside Address
The inside address is the recipient's address.
Salutation
Use the same name as the inside address, including the personal title. If
you know the person and typically address them by their first name, it
is acceptable to use only the first name in the salutation (for example:
Dear Lucy:). In all other cases, however, use the personal title and
last/family name followed by a colon. Leave one line blank after the
salutation.
Body
The body is the meat of your letter. For block and modified block letter
formats, single space and left justify each paragraph. Be sure to leave a
blank line between each paragraph, however, no matter the format. Be
sure to also skip a line between the salutation and the body, as well as
the body and the close.
Complimentary Close
The complimentary close is a short and polite remark that ends your
letter. The close begins at the same justification as your date and one
line after the last body paragraph. Capitalize the first word of your
closing and leave four lines for a signature between the close and the
sender’s name. A comma should follow the closing.
Signature
Skip at least four lines after the close for your signature, and then type
out the name to be signed.
The Body of the Admission Letter
What you write in the body of the admission letter is very important. Your
message should be clear, concise, and precise enough to set you apart from the
other applicants and to make the admissions officer think that you might be a
good addition to the school.
Paragraph 1: State the reason why you want to be accepted in the program or
course that the school is offering. Briefly, you can tell how you came to learn
about that program.
Paragraph 2: State your career goal and what you wish to pursue and achieve
by the time you graduate from the school. Then write about your most positive
characteristics (determination, passion, and creativity, for example) that would
help you achieve your goal.
Paragraph 3: Mention the documents that you are sending together with the
letter.
Tips in Writing a College Admission Letter
1. Be honest and sincere in telling your reason for choosing the school. Avoid
superlatives, such as “Your university has the best students in engineering, and
I just simply want to be part of the best.”
2. Tell your story in an interesting manner. Find an angle that makes your
story fresh and captivating.
3. Write specific details. Do not simply state your goal and say that you
would like to achieve it. Make sure you give concrete reasons for pursuing that
goal.
4. Choose your words well. Use words that are clear and easy to understand.
Avoid highfalutin words.
5. Revise and proofread your letter. Once you are done writing it, it would
be good to set it aside for a couple of hours (or even days, if time permits) and
look at it again. Ensure that there are no errors; a simple spelling error can
detract from an otherwise well-written admission letter.
E. Valuing: Finding Directions: Prepare a draft of your college admission letter addressed to the
Practical Applications of Dean of the College or University you want to enroll in. Use one whole sheet

their institution's environment.
