Post My motivation letter to a College

Hello! I am new to this forum and this is my first post, asking you, if you are kind enough to look at my motivation letter, which I will send to a College in Denmark.
I have replaced my name with the University's name with [UName], my current high school name with [High School Name]

Dear Sir/Madam,


I am writing to apply for the Multimedia Design and Communication Degree programme in [UName]. In the present, I am studying at [High School Name], in a section specialised on mathematics and computer studies.
My aim is to be a web designer, therefore I would like to gain a deeper theoretical knowledge and practice experience in the field of multimedia design. What appeals to me in this field is the opportunity of learning the steps through which a project is finalized and made into a useful, representative and ingenious image of a company. I believe that the visual part of marketing plays an essential role and it’s defining for the image the company represents from the consumer’s point of view.
The main reason I like designing is that I possess skills in recognizing visual patterns and a natural talent in conceiving a useful and pleasant interface or adjusting an existing project to meet certain needs and standards. I am confident that, having my heart set on following this program, I am able to learn every new concept that is presented to me and also quickly adapt to the educational system of your country. Moreover, I find that such an experience as studying and possibly working abroad would be a contribution to further develop my personality, as well as gaining cultural and social knowledge.
I am a sociable person, I enjoy working in teams and I believe that my individual abilities are best put into use within a team. My teamwork experience consists of many curricular and extracurricular activities which I attended or volunteered, including sports events, school festivals, theoretical and art competitions. Working in teams has made me a flexible person, who knows how to listen to others’ opinions and how to express myself. As a result, others could better understand my intentions and ideas.
Therefore, my goal is to develop my aptitudes and emphasize them to a certain degree that would allow me to better understand the subtleties of the designing process. I am willing to achieve this through studying and following the Multimedia Design And Communication Courses within [UName].
Thank you very much for considering my request. I look forward to your positive response.

Yours sincerely,

Thank you very much for your time and I welcome any help you can give me.

What particularly appeals to me in this course is the opportunity it will give me to fully understand the steps through which a project is finalized and made into a useful, representative and ingenious image of a company. I believe strongly that the visual part of marketing plays an essentialrole in defining the image the company portrays to the consumer.
