Dear Dad,

You have always stood through thick and thin, supporting me every step of the way. I am truly thankful for help for these past years and you gave me a choice to continue local or outside of the country but I hope every decision that I'll make you will be supporting me along the way. I want to continue my path to the University of Manchester England. However, this optionion doesn’t make me want to stay apart from you or mom but with this decision it will be a huge opportunity for me and I don’t want to miss the boat.Other than that, I already make a comparison between those universities. Based on my research I discovered that University of Manchester will be guaranteed accommodation. Also that university is known for good teaching and strong research on that course. During my stay in Manchester, maybe I can learn something new that I can share when we meet again and it will teach me how to be alone and independent without you guys. All kidding aside, please support what I'll do in the future and I'll always make time for you guys even if I have to burn the midnight oil.

Sincerely your beloved daughter,

Dhia

I really appreciate your effort bending over backwards to find a spot for me in a top-tier universities. Honestly, I'm in a dilemma to choose between the University of Manchester and the University of Malaya Sabah (UMS).

After putting on my thinking cap, I made up my mind to continue studying at the University of Manchester. I chose the University of Manchester because it offers a 1-year International Foundation Programme (Medicine) specifically for international students to enter the 5-year MBChB Medicine degree. The University of Manchester also has a better education system and can give a lot of chances for future doctors.

Even though there's going to be a lot of hardship I need to endure since it's far away from my homeland and family. I still chose it since I want to spread my wings and bond with people outside. I swear to you guys that I'm going to study hard until the day I'm holding a degree in my hands and become a useful person.

Eventually, I hope you guys can support and understand my decisions. I want to stand on my own two feet and achieve success from my own sweat. I hope we’re on the same wavelength about this.

Sincerely, your princess

Dear dad,

Thank you so much for taking the time to research universities for me, especially at the University of Manchester and University Malaysia Sabah . I truly appreciate your efforts and supports both of you and mom have given to ensure i have a bright future.

After giving a lot of thoughts, i want to be honest with you about my choice of study. While i know Medicine is a noble and prestigious field. I have realized that it is not the path i wish to pursue . Instead, i've decided that i want to further my studies in Early Childhood Education at UMS.

I hope you can understand my decision, i want to success based on my own choices not just to fulfill others expectations on me. I believed that i can be successful in the field i'm passionate about.

Sincerely, Your Daughter

To my nearest male ancestor,

I cannot thank you enough for securing my place at these prestigious universities. After weighing the pros and cons regarding each option, I have chosen the University of Manchester, England, as my academy of choice. I selected this institution of erudition to pursue my education as it offers the ideal environment and resources that will aid in advancing my academic ambition and personal development required in nurturing my rising intellect. Furthermore, it will enable my transformation into an independent individual since the auspicious moment for me to operate under my own steam has arrived. I will notify you on any alterations in my decision.

With utmost honour,

Your devoted female scion,

Alisya I.

Dear Father,

In my opinion, the ball is in my court to choose University Malaya Sabah. I know I have the chance to study overbroad but I prefer a local university so I can stay close to you and I also consider you as a big fish. I still have the option to continue what I want even if I choose UMS. I'm very grateful to have a Dad like you. You still take good care of me since I was a baby until now. I cannot lose you. I still remember what you said to me. You say "Hang in there, you can still continue your journey." Those words really motivate me. Once again, thank you for being my dad. You're the best. Everyone deserve love from their father.

Sincerely your daughter,

Danielle

To the best paterfamilias,

Thank you for securing those two universities for me. I am genuinely on cloud nine. I would love to choose the University of Manchester as my choice to continue my education. This is because it has always been my dream to study abroad. Other than that, the University of Manchester is one of the best universities as its ranking is 34th in the world. Studying there can boost my imaginations and creativity, maybe even going way further than my goals.

Yes, it's not a walk in the park, but I will go through the obstacles to pursue the best development I can get so I can achieve my dreams. This will be the first step to achieving a successful life, where I will make you and mother proud and where I hope to be half the man you are.

Also, one of my main reasons for choosing this university is so that I can watch our favorite football team play, which is Manchester United. It's been both of our fantasies to watch them play at Old Trafford. And this is a chance to make that happen. I'm sure it will be one of the best memories of our lives. Especially for me, getting to watch my favorite team at the theatre of dreams with my best friend.

That's all from me. Again, I am really grateful for this. I can't thank both you and mom enough. I'm sure you both will get emotional, but don't worry. I will take care of my self and go to the extra mile for our family. I love you.

With utmost respect,

Syazaril

Dear dady,

First of all, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the effort you have put into finding a university for me. Your support means more than words can say, and I truly appreciate the way you always go the extra mile for me.

After reflecting on it, I feel that continuing my studies at University Malaya Sabah would be the best choice. As people often say, home sweet home, and being closer to our home will make life easier for both of us. I also find great comfort in Kota Kinabalu . It feels like a safe harbor, giving me peace of mind knowing I am still in my own country. Being near you and the family is like having a shoulder to cry on, helping me avoid the loneliness that sometimes comes with being far away.

Of course, I believe the more the merrier when it comes to ideas, so I am open to hearing your thoughts and opinions before making the final decision. Your wisdom is something I treasure, and I know that every cloud has a silver lining when we discuss things together.

With love,

Your daughter,

Dear Dad,

I think, I would choose the University of Manchester, England to continue studying. I choose it because they have such a good technology there like computer, laptop and the laboratory facility. I will walking on eggshells when using these things while studying. Moreover, I would like to learn more and experience how life is there. Also, I will keep my eyes on the ball while studying during classes. Lastly, I will keep studying until i achieve my goals. I think that's all for now, I hope you will agree with my choice.

Your Son, Fahmi.

Dear father,

I would really love to continue my study in University Malaysia Sabah. As you know, I am a person who is easily homesick. At least, if I continue at UMS you guys could visit me and I could even go home if there's no class. There's a saying bite off more than you can chew. I'm afraid that if I go Manchester, I wouldn't be able to be fully focused and also handle the pressure. I hope you can understand that.

Being close to you guys might be a blessing in disguise. Besides, mother would be really sad if I continue my study somewhere far away. Being closer will make it easier for you guys to check up on me. Other than that, I also feel more secured and comfortable studying in my own country.

Sincerely your daughter,

Dear dad,

I am very thankful and grateful for your help in securing my university for me. In my opinion, I do much prefer University Malaya because of a few reasons. Going overseas would mean id rarely have the chance to visit my family, because the ticket cost an arm and a leg. Other than that, I am someone who is very emotional so id like to be closer so that I wouldn't be bother emotionally considering the university is closer than going overseas. I do promise id do my best in my studies and put my nose to the grindstone. All of your guys support has help me a lot so I'm willing to do my best to pay off your dedication and hard work that you have done for me throughout these years.

From your daughter,

Dear Father,

I have read your email carefully. After thinking it over, I believe I should follow my heart and continue my studies at University Malaya Sabah. From my point of view, studying there will provide better facilities for me. For example, the cost of living is not too high, which helps me stay within budget.

Moreover, the university is close to home, and being able to stay near our family and old friends will make it easier for me to find emotional support during stressful times in college. Being close to them means I will have a strong support system, which will help me get through thick and thin and avoid feeling homesick.

I believe this decision will be the best choice for both my studies. Thank you for your understanding.

Dear dad,

I chose to go to University Malaya Sabah because the cost may be lower and you can visit me whenever you want. Besides that, if I got homesick, I can come home and visit you too. And if you got sick, I will take care of you until you get better because University Malaya Sabah near home. Lastly, if I want to walk with my friends, I don't have to worry because I know the way and I don't have to worry about food because of course the restaurants near University Malaya Sabah are mostly halal restaurants and of course the taste is so yummy! I hope you can support my decision and I promise will make you proud to me.

Dear Dad

Thank you for securing a spot for me in a Prestigious university, you really did not have to go the extra mile for me. To answer your question, I have made a decision to attend the University Of Manchester. One of the many reasons I chose to study overseas was to broaden my perspective and find more incredible people out there. While staying at Malaysia may seem nice and closer to home, I wish to explore the world beyond the eternal blue I've always known. I'm going out on a limb and choose this path. I hope we are on the same page.

Sincerely, your son

Dear Dad,

Thank you so much for these opportunities. I appreciate the effort and care you’ve put into my future.

After much thought, I’ve decided to attend Universiti Malaysia Sabah. I know this might not be what you expected, but I want to be honest about my goals rather than go down a path that isn’t right for me. Medicine isn’t my passion, and I don’t want to bite off more than I can chew by committing to something I’m not fully dedicated to.

Instead, I’m interested in a career in the energy sector, particularly offshore LNG operations with PETRONAS. I believe choosing UMS will give me the right direction and allow me to follow my interests, rather than just go through the motions.

I hope you can understand my decision. At the end of the day, I choose a path where I can truly give it my all and make you proud.

Dear father,

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to choose between these two excellent universities. In my opinion, I would continue my studies at University of Manchester, England because this university admits only the best students each year, so In this condition I will not hesitate to choose this university. I know I will feel lonely there but don't worry. I'm sure I can fit in there. Once I complete my studies and pass my exams, Insha'Allah I will go home and show my result and be happy with my family again.

Dear Father

I hope you are doing great. I would like to continue my studies in medicine at University of Manchester, England. There are many reason that influence my decision. First going to an overseas university would provide wider opportunity in terms of education since they offer a more advanced programmes and I can not miss the boat . In addition I would also gain a new experience In life as the saying goes, no pain no gain, and I'm ready to face the new challenges in order to improve my self. Thank you for your consideration

Dear Dad,

I would like to attend the foundation course of medicine at University of Manchester, England because the university offers a one-year International Foundation Programme for Medicine, Dentistry, or Pharmacy. Also, the opportunity of getting accepted by the University of Manchester only happens once in a blue moon. Not only that, the thought of getting to meet different people with different nationalities makes me feel like a dog with two tails. Although I might have to go the extra mile to fit in once I got there, I will make sure to remember the faces of people who are counting on me and never forget my roots.

Your eldest daughter,

Hello Father,

I would love to studies abroad at University of Manchester, England. Because since I was little I always dreamed of going abroad to travel or studying, befriend with foreigners and playing with snowballs in the winter. Maybe the cost will be higher than University Malaya Sabah, but I can find some parttime jobs there to cover some bill. I know it might be difficult for us to meet, but we can still facetime or call each other and I'll make sure that I can get a dorm, if I cant get it then i'll rent a tiny apartment or share an apartment with my friend.

Your beloved daughter, Aliah

Dear Father,

Im going to apply at UMS because I will be near home so that I wont get homesick and so you wont worry too much about my well being. I'm going to be a doctor in the future because of your help, I'm very grateful for your support and love. One day, I'm going to pay you back no matter the cost, because you are my whole world after mom died. I know things have been difficult since her passing, but when succeed, I'll help a lot of people. I don't want to feel useless like when mother passed, I'll be useful this time I promise.

Dear Dad,

I hope you're doing well, I'm thankful you're arranged an opportunity for me to attend at University of Manchester but I've realized that I'm not really big into foundation course in medicine. I've never really been interested in medicine, nor have I ever been interested in becoming a pharmacist. I've always been into Animation and Computer science, it's something I've been into since I was a kid and I seem to be good at it. I choose to pursue computer science and animation because it allows me to combine my interest in technology with my creativity, giving me the opportunity to build practical skills while also bringing ideas to life through digital design. I didn’t make this decision on the spur of the moment, I’ve thought it through carefully and I believe it’s important for me to follow my heart and choose a path that truly suits me. I hope you can understand my decision, and I truly appreciate your support and guidance.

Sincerely,

Dan

Dear Father,

After thinking carefully, I have decided to continue my studies in Malaysia, either at UPSI (Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris) or UMS(Universiti Malaysia Sabah), and pursue a course in (Education). This is because I have a strong ambition to become a teacher in the future. I believe teaching is a meaningful career .Also,UPSI is well known for its excellent teacher training programmes. UMS is also a good option as it because closer to our home.Although studying abroad is a great opportunity, I feel that there’s no place like home, and I can focus better in a familiar environment. At the end of the day, I want to follow my heart and choose a path that matches me.I hope you will understand and support my decision. I promise to work hard and make you proud.

Thank you for everything.

Dear Dad,

I hope you are doing well. I'm over the moon to hear that I have been accepted into both universities. I like to choose the University of Manchester because I get to travel the world, but on the other hand, I'm in low spirits to leave both my mom and dad. If you and Mom agree to me leaving our country, I will study hard to get to my final destination, which is a doctor. Even though I feel sad to leave you and Mom, I will do everything to achieve my goals in life. That's all from me, I hope you and Mom will willingly let me travel the world to achieve my goals, bye

Dear dad,

in my honest opinion, i'll choose the to continue my study overboard because i want to learn how to take care of myself and also learn a bit more of other people's culture such as their ways of living and also to graduate with flying colors. Other than that, i also want to feel how it's like to live in another enviroment. For example, testing new food and also feel the enjoyment of holding real snow. Last but not the least, I want to say thank you for supporting me troughout my entire life and appreaciating my decision. Now, it's time for me to stand on my own two feet and repay your kindness all this year.
