I am applying to University of Houston for fall 2011 for MS in Marketing. I have read few
of your research publications onAdvertising Research targeting online customers. I have
worked on similar marketing project at school involving design and processing online
customer data by surveys. I am interested in advertising research area and would like
to know about research opportunities to work with you.
Looking forward for your reply,
Regards,

and it gave me many ideas for my future research. I have been exploring graduate programs where I
can work on this topic.
I hope you dont mind my getting in touch, but Id like to inquire whether you are currently accepting
graduate students. And if you are, if youd be willing to talk to me a bit more, by email or on the
phone, or in person if I can arrange a campus visit, about my graduate school plans. I have explored
your departments graduate school website in detail, and it seems like an excellent fit for me because
of its emphasis on xx and xx, but I still have a few specific questions about xx and xxx that Id like to
talk to you about.
I know youre very busy so I appreciate any time you can give me. Thanks very much,
Sincerely,
XX XXX
Why is this email good? Because it shows that you are serious and well qualified. It shows that you
have done thorough research and utilized all the freely available information on the website. It
shows that you have specific plans which have yielded specific questions. It shows that you are
familiar with the professors work. It shows that you respect the professors time.
All of these attributes will make your email and your name stand out, and exponentially increase
your chances of getting a timely, thorough, and friendly response, and potentially building the kind
of relationship that leads to a strong mentoring relationship.
If the professor doesnt respond in a week or so, send a follow up email gently reminding them of
your initial email, and asking again for their response. If they ignore you again, best to probably give
up. But professors are busy and distracted, and it may take a little extra effort to get through.
Good luck!
