I'm trying to write a cover letter for a graduate assistantship position. I'm quite horrible at writing cover letters and would greatly appreciate the help!
Thanks,

RE: Application for Housing and Residential Communities Graduate Assistantship
Dear Ms. Wallace:
I am writing to apply for the Graduate Assistantship for Housing and Residential Communities. I was recently accepted into the Doctoral School Psychology Program at the University of Alabama.
I did my undergraduate work in Psychology and currently have a position in Customer Service at Wegman's Food Markets in Geneseo, NY. I can deal well with people. I also learn quickly. I greatly enjoyed my dorm experience during my undergraduate studies and I hope to help future undergraduate students enjoy their experience as well.
I believe that this Graduate Assistantship would greatly help me in achieving my academic goals. I thank you for the opportunity to submit this application for your consideration. Please contact me if there is anything else I need to provide. I look forward to communicating with you in the near future.
Sincerely,
Janelle M. Rowe
