To Whom It May Concern:

I am presently attending George Washington High School in Boston, Massachusetts. I am in grade 11 and will graduate in June, 2008. Eventually, I would like to pursue a career in journalism. I am interested in obtaining a Bachelor of Arts degree at Columbia University. Please provide me with the following information:

1. An admissions packet
2. An application
3. General information brochures
4. Information about available financial aid
5. Information about available scholarships

If possible, I would also like to meet with a financial aid officer and a faculty member of the English department. If campus tours are available, I would like to participate in one in the near future. Thank you in advance for your time. I can be reached by phone at (xxx) xxx-xxxx.

Kind regards,

Joseph McKinley
