hi
i wrote a motivational letter to get a PHD scholarship, in fact its the first time i wrote such letter
so i dont know how should i relate the sentences and use the words.
in fact this scholarship is very important in my life so i hope to get it
i know that in this forum there are many professionals can help me
any help will be appreciated
thanks in advance

motivational letter :
recently I got a master's degree in Management Information system (MIS) with very good degree (87%), so I became very close to achieve my goal to being an international researcher in decision support system science; the science which makes the decision-making process and the trade-offs among the alternatives more easier not only in business but in all areas of life; so I would like to apply for PhD scholarship for foreign students to achieve my goal.

When I was a young , I watched my relatives manage their businesses, they were taking decisions based on their intuition, where not all their decisions are correct, that motivate me to search for mechanisms that support decision-making; to fulfill my curiosity, I studied information system at business and administration at the University of **** which is a public university, during my studies I learned the principles and associated tools that help to support decision-making in the organizations.

After finishing my studies, and as a result to my academic excellence, I have been hired in a major trading company in ***, I helped to deliver valuable information to the senior managers and I shared in developing many business process, helping the company reaching their goals.

Also I have made many feasibility studies for many projects.
Simultaneously, the Decision Support System science was rapidly developing, especially with the rapid changing in business environment and increasing the managers needs to make fast and right decisions in the right time.

That clears my vision and helps me to specify my strategic goals, therefore; I took my decision to continue learning. in 2010, I went to ******, where I currently live, to do a Master Degree in Management Information System at faculty of Administration in the *** University, which is one of the most reputable universities in ******.

It was a very interesting experience for me, where specialists and well-known professors taught me many advanced courses, and I made several studies in management, database and data analysis.

despite of the war in my country and moving from our home, with high psychological impact of all that on me, I insist on accomplishing my master study, because I believe that my scientific excellence is the best gift that I can present to my broken country; so I worked hard to complete my thesis and I spent more time and effort to read books and follow the latest technologies in Business Intelligence domain, which was the wide subject for my master thesis, that titled as:

"Building Self-Service Business Intelligence Solution for Wholesale Companies using Agile Methodology"
In this thesis I configured one of the Agile methodologies which is Adaptive Software Development (ASD), to fit building data discovery solution (which is an advanced Business intelligence technique) to solve the fast requirements changing problem in the wholesale companies.

To prove the theoretical research, I applied this model on a ****** wholesale company and I got positive results.
This research will be published soon in an international scientific conference.
Through my master study, I benefited from data analysis skill and the economic courses which I got to start up my own work as an analyst in the Foreign Exchange market; where I analyze the historical data and the economic news for specific currency to predict the short term future movement, I sell this recommendations to many traders in the market; this work has maximized my analysis skill, and provide me with some money to complete Master degree.

So, I believe that my education and employment background qualifies me to enter the PHD program, and complete my research in Business Intelligence, but my current financial situation doesn't enable me to afford the tuition fee for the PHD; so I would be grateful to be provided with sponsorship to further my education to get my goal; After that, when coming back my home country, and after finishing the war I hope that I can contribute my effort with other people to rebuild my country.

In addition, I will get a chance through this scholarship to visit ******, the great country which I have heard a lot about its civilization and the scientific growth from my friends, also it enables me to share the knowledge with other students.

I would be grateful if you consider me for the PHD scholarship program as a high-recommended candidate.
I am enclosing copies of my passport, Master's degree, Graduate transcripts, two reference letters, Curriculum vitae, attestation show that I had my master's degree in English language

Should you require further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for considering my application, and I look forward to your favorable reply.

Hi,

I think your background should be quiet attractive to the admission team. However, as the scholarship is always limited, I would like to recommend you to;

1. Highlights what you could contribute to the business school after/ during the PHD study? (
2. Think about: What is/are your competitive advantage(s)? Why should your school grant you the scholarship instead of the others?
3. Consult your supervisor: understand his/her research interests, and to also relate this interest to your personal developments (ideally state the commitment that you could have to the dept)

The above are just what first came to my mind :)
Cheer up!
