Hi everyone!
I am applying for the Swedish Institute Study Scholarship. Met some trouble figuring out what specific content should be included in my answers and hope you could offer me your understanding. Really appreciated!
The third question in the motivation letter especially confuses me. Should I focus on my achivements and capabilities or just the willingness and abstract driving forces in my life? Wouldn't it be too empty if I just mention the ambitons and goals without specific achievements and skills? But how could I state my achievements without repeating the information already stated in my CV as stated in the application instructions? I feel really conflicted.
The four questions in the motivation letter are as follows for reference.
1. Describe your choice of master's program in Sweden and elaborate on how you think it will affect your personal/professional development.
2.Give one concrete example of a current hallenge or possibility that is important for you and your home country. Relate it to the program you are applying to.
3. Describe your platform (e.g. experiences, engagements, skills, ambitons, goals, networks) from which you have the ambition to contribute to the development of your home country.
4. Give one concrete example of how your scholarship period in Sweden will contribute to the addressing the challenges or possibilities in your home country.
The application instructions are in the attachment files for reference.
Thanks for your help in advance!
