Cover Letters
How do I write a good cover letter?
The Career Center can help with all of your cover letter needs and questions whether that is creating your first letter or targeting the newest opportunity.
Your cover letter should provide a brief explanation of your interest in the position relative to your future educational and career goals. The strongest applicants will be clear about what they can contribute to the organization with specific reference to the position description. If you have any special skills or interests, include them in your letter.
