It is 3 a.m., and I am applying for PhD positions. Motivation letter always was a stumbling block for me, as it should be unique but structured, and it should have enough information while being concise at the same time. Let me give you several resources that I currently use: - Harvard - HES Resume & Cover Letter Guide | Link - MIT - "How to write an effective cover letter" | Link - LMU - Letter of motivation samples | Link #PhD #guides
