XXXX University’s LLM Program in International Law is my first choice for Law School for several reasons, most of all the sheer excellence of your program and my deep fascination with the UK, particularly Scotland. I see your program as the perfect place for me to acquire the academic preparation to make my maximum contribution to the global community. Born and raised in Hong Kong, I am very much engaged with relations and communications between China’s different political, linguistic, and religious groups across the globe. This has been especially true since I completed an internship with a PR firm in Beijing in 2013. In 2014, I spent half the school year studying in Shanghai, and in 2015 I returned to Beijing and completed another internship with China News Agency.
I hope to be selected for your competitive LLM Program at XXXX based on my academic excellence, professional experience, and noble ideals, coupled with my advanced global perspectives and profound concern for the fate of the Global South. A few months ago, I spent over a month in Africa as part of a Christmas missionary service trip. We visited four rural villages, and I played, sang, and danced with hundreds of children in each place that we saw in Senegal. In the capital Dakar, I got to know people working with various humanitarian organizations and learned about the significant need for development aid and its implementation.
Global development depends on the absence of war, and I want to become a professional peacemaker promoting economic globalization. I have chosen to pursue a career in Law because I see the legal field as existing on the frontier of politics and morality, where my passion lies. Greater China has become a giant with mammoth global implications, especially for Africa. I see both good and evil in this expansion of Chinese interests. As a legal professional, I hope to simultaneously promote the benefits and limit the evil, promoting human rights and cross-border investment. The research interest of several faculty members in the LLM Program closely aligns with my interests and aspirations. Dr. Stephen ____, for example, explores the relationship between developing countries and the IMF while being a recognized expert in human rights in Africa.
One can learn from the stones in Edinburg. There, I will understand the big economic picture, the mechanisms of international law, and hopes and dreams for building a better world where economic development and respect for human rights can flourish side by side. I fell desperately in love with the idea of completing your LLM program in 2016 when I visited your lovely city and campus: history, architecture, art, cultural diversity, and global humanistic dialogue, all set amidst some of the most breathtaking natural scenery in the world.
Thank you for considering my application.
