Dear Professor Speegle:
Thank you for forwarding to the application and mendation forms on July 1999. I did not immediately respond at the time because I was waiting for my GRE and TOEFL scores. Since I have those scores now, I wish to get some preliminary indication from you about my chance of pursuing graduate studies at your university.
A major in Database Design putation Theory, I am deeply interested in your graduate program, which seems to offer exactly the kind of advanced training that I need to further my career. My TOEFL score, obtained March 1999, is 653 (61/68/67), and my GRE General score, obtained in December 1998, is also relatively high at 2220 (V 720 97%; IQ 790 96%; A 710 90%). The academic record of my undergraduate studies is very good. Except for two peripheral courses, I was a straight A student throughout the four undergraduate years. My performance was particularly strong in mathematics. Since graduation, I have been engaged in research and development at a leading Chinese research institution.
While this record looks impressive, I need to know whether it is good enough to win me not only acceptance into your Master' s program but also full financial assistance for my studies. Coming from an impoverished family in a Third World country, I cannot possibly pay up
