Any extra page will not be considered in the evaluation.  \n􀁸 Your cover letter must be accompanied by a description of how you cover the admission requirements (see template [at](at www.itu.dk)[ ](at www.itu.dk)[www.itu.dk](at www.itu.dk)) .  \n􀁸 Formulate your thoughts clearly. Avoid a too formal and strict style; your application must seem serious, but it should also make interesting reading and have personality to stand out among all the other applications.  \n􀁸 Have someone else read your cover letter. Do other people understand what you are trying to convey? Do they notice the aspects that you want to emphasise? Are they left with the impression that you have made a qualified and well-considered choice of programme and that you are motivated to start your studies and make a serious effort? Does your cover letter signal earnest commitment to, interest in and understanding of what you are signing up for?  \n􀁸 If you are in doubt of what to leave out and what to keep, remember that the key word is „relevance‟. Only include information about yourself that is relevant to your application. Onlyinclude information about jobs and other activities if it is relevant to the overall impression.  \nIn the following pages, we discuss examples of things that you may address in your cover letter.  \nWhy did you choose this particular programme at the IT University?  \nIt is in the interest of the IT University to admit students who have a good understanding of the programme that they have applied for. That will minimise the risk of students dropping out because the programme does not live up to their expectations or because they are in fact not motivated to study at the IT University.  \nAs a preparation, it is therefore a good idea for you to familiarise yourself with the field, organisation and working method of the programme. You can do that by reding about the programme’s:  \n􀁸 Main objectives and the competence profiles that it builds.  \n􀁸 Compulsory courses and specialisations.  \n􀁸 Individual course descriptions, which contain information on the composition of theory, methods and practical elements, as well as on intended programme structure and working method.  \n􀁸 Visiting the IT University and participating in open house event where you can meet students and the Study & Career Guidance.  \nConsider specifically why this programme is appealing to you at both an academic and a personal level, as well as in respect of your future career. Also, if relevant, tell us where you first came across the programme, why it caught your attention and made you consider applying to it:  \n􀁸 What caught your eye?  \n􀁸 What keywords do you note when reading about the programme, and why?  \n􀁸 What inspires you and whets your curiosity?  \n􀁸 Why and how?  \n􀁸 What seems particularly challenging or relevant to you?  \n􀁸 Are there specific aspects of the programme that you already know that you would like to immerse yourself in and explore in detail?  \nThese questions should be reflected on very shortly in your motivational letter (about 10 lines only) . Describe how your educational background is connected to the MSc in Computer Science?  \nWhen writing your cover letter, it is important that you formulate why the programme is relevant to you considering your specific educational background. It is important that you tell us how your degree correlates with and is supplemented by the programme applied for. Be specific and provide examples if possible.  \nFor example, you may describe:  \n􀁸 Which elements of your previous educational background would it be natural to develop furt","cbCaisutNPCQHpKy","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisutNPCQHpKy","pdf",653298,"English","# Why this cover letter guidance matters\n## What to include and what to avoid\n# Key requirements\n## One-page A4 limit\n## Attach the admission-requirement description\n## Write clearly and stay relevant\n# Content ideas for the motivational letter\n## Why this programme at IT University\n## Links between your background and the MSc\n## Your goals and ambitions after completion","[{\"question\":\"How long can the cover letter be for the IT University MSc in Computer Science application?\",\"answer\":\"The cover letter must not exceed one A4 sheet.
