Letter of Motivation

As most of us are used to of copy pasting assignments from internet and we route memorize our essays
for examinations hence Letter of motivation seems like a huge hassle to write. Letter of motivation must
be original, genuine and should tell the selection committee about your motivation behind

1. Studying in Germany
2. Studying in that particular university
3. Choosing that particular course

Keep in mind that when you state all of this, you are telling the selection committee about yourself, your
passions to what drives you in life to what you intend to do in the future. Each and every one of us is
unique, we all have our stories from personal struggles to outstanding academic achievement, from
financial need to excellent research skills. Make sure this document showcases your individuality.
