The Importance of an Admission Letter
An admission letter is not just a mere formality but also an opportunity for you to showcase yourself, affirm your abilities, and make a good impression on the admissions committee. It’s like “a good first impression is half the battle,” helping you score points right from the opening lines.
I vividly remember the story of Nguyen Van Thanh, a former student of mine. Thanh was an excellent student but quite shy. When applying to university, although Thanh’s exam scores were high, they were not enough to guarantee admission to his dream major. However, thanks to a sincere and emotional admission letter, Thanh convinced the admissions committee and was ultimately accepted. “Dripping water hollows out stone,” Thanh’s perseverance and effort were rewarded. The admission letter was the “golden key” that helped Thanh open the door to his future.

Impressive Opening
Start with a formal greeting and briefly introduce yourself. Clearly state the purpose of writing the letter, which is to apply for admission to the school and your desired major.
Main Content: Showcasing Abilities and Aspirations
This is the most crucial part of the letter. Clearly and persuasively present:
- Academic Achievements: Highlight your strengths, such as high grades, academic awards, achievements in academic competitions, etc.
- Skills and Experience: List soft skills, extracurricular activities, volunteer experience, etc. These demonstrate that you are a dynamic person, capable of adapting and contributing to the community.

- Reasons for Choosing the School and Major: Show your understanding of the school and the major you wish to pursue. Clearly state why you chose this school and this major, and what motivated you. Sincerity and enthusiasm will help you score points with the admissions committee.
- Future Orientation: Share your future plans and dreams. This shows that you have clear goals and determination to pursue your passion.
According to Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Thi Lan Huong, author of “The Art of Conquering University Dreams,” an effective admission letter needs to clearly demonstrate the “TAM” (Vietnamese word meaning HEART/MIND, used here as an acronym): Talent, Aspiration, and Mission.
