Hi class,

Now that you are done with your survey, spend the rest of the hour:

(1) Look up 1 to 2 universities of interest (don't just choose name brand universities but look based on        geographic location, majors of interest, personal values, affordability, etc.).

(2) Locate a contact email for their admissions department. Cut and paste the email into your school            gmail account.

(3) Craft an email to the admissions department (using a word processor) that states:
     
      (a) Who you are: what grade, what school, what nationality, your current GPA, your interests, and              your reasons for pursuing higher education. (You should have no more than 1 sentence for each            of these personal points).
      (b) Ask about scholarships, work study programs, foreign exchange programs, etc.
           
            (i) Use your positioning statement in your initial paragraph (craft a new one if needed).
            (ii) End by thanking them for their time.
