Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to apply for a place on the Archeology MA course which commencest this September at Cambridge University.

I am 25 years old and I have completed a Bachelor's degree in Archeology at Drakeham University, where I received first class honours. Prior to this I was a pupil at Berkeley Comprehensive, where I obtained a GCSE and three A levels in History, Geography and Latin.

Since the completion of of my BA I have spent two years working as assistant archeologist on a site in Egypt. During this expedition I have assisted in discovery of several interesting artifacts. This work was extremely enjoyable and I am now anxious to specialize by gaining further qualifications before embarking on my chosen career in this field.

I enclose a detailed curriculum vitae in the hope that you will consider my application for entry. I look forward to receiving your response in the near future.

Yours faithfully,

Jane Miller
