Dear Dr. Popham
My name is Peter Yang, and I am writing this letter to express my interest in applying to Peter. A Allard School of Law here at UBC. Attending Law school is one of the things I have always wanted to do after I graduate. More specifically, I want to go to UBC law school because it is close to home and because it is one of the schools I have dreamt of attending and learning law so I can be a lawyer. Although my dream of coming to UBC came true, I never had the chance to attend any in-person courses because of the pandemic, so I think going to UBC law would be a great option for me because I get to take in-person courses and learn about the Candian law.
In May 2023, I will graduate from UBC’s Bachelor of Arts in Psychology program. The Center for Accessibility at UBC helped me overcome my learning disability, and made me very successful in my studies, which is why I will likely register myself with them again when I were be admitted. Apart from academics, I have participated in various volunteer work in the past. For example, I was a program leader for an afterschool care program called Steveston United Peers, which is designed for kids with disabilities to practice social skills. In addition, I also have volunteered as a swim coach at River Club and as a volunteer for my swim club: Richmond Kigoos Swim Club.
On top of that, I also have volunteered at various charity events such as the Canadian Cancer Society. I also, participated in a variety of extracurricular activities such as swimming, playing basketball, and making Youtube videos. Based on these experiences, I know that I can bring a massive contribution to the UBC Law school community. I hope to hear from you at your earliest convenience.
Best regards,
Peter Yang
