Dear Sir/Madam,
I’ve read a lot about tertiary study in the UK and very impressed by the reputation of many famous universities there. Now I am in the last year of the high school and will finish secondary education in 3 months. I am very much interested in an undergraduate course in economics in Birmingham University. Could you please send me some information about the admission requirements, tuitions fees, accommodation and details of the course?
I am ready to supply any information about myself if necessary.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours faithfully,
Hoang Thanh Nam.
