Dear Mr. Graeme Freeman and the Freeman Foundation,
I am writing to express my sincerest gratitude for being selected as one of the recipients for the 2017-2018 Freeman Scholarship cohort. I am deeply honored to be selected as an applicant for this upcoming Fall 2017 semester. Your generous support will allow me to focus on my learning during my study abroad journey at Korea University Business School in Seoul, South Korea. Before all else, I would love to introduce myself to you in all openness. My name is Cindy Phong, and I am a Junior at the Shidler College of Business. Contrary, you may ask me why I have chosen that particular school and location. Korea University stood out to me because of how centralized it is in the city. Nevertheless, Seoul's cultural interaction is a mixture of old culture and new. Professionally, studying abroad while pursuing a degree in Finance and International Business will allow me to grow in many ways. Dealing with another culture enables ones understanding through becoming more profound in their own culture. Creativity level increases, curiosity grows, but more importantly, communications skills become even more fluid as your knowledge opens to the manners and acceptable practices of a new culture. Once again, Thank you for your generous donation. It was an absolute honor meeting you and your family in person! Truly, your scholarship has given me so much financial and emotional support. Nevertheless, I look forward to sharing my journey with you in Seoul, South Korea. Warmest regards, Cindy Phong
