I need your help! Hi everyone! Today i ask your help in one very serious deal. I need to write an email in one serious international organisation. This organisation accreditate people as international translators. In the 2015 i'll get education in translation and i have two ways. On the original site of this organisation is this text "The minimum level of qualification held to consider accreditation at this level is a bachelor degree.Accreditation is awarded only in the languages specified on the qualification and/or academic transcripts.For this level of accreditation one of these languages must be English and accreditation is only awarded in one direction, that is into the ‘A’ language, in combination with English (even in situations where study may have been in both directions). " How do you think, does it mean, that if I have bachelor degree in IT and master in translating i can't be successful applicant? I think, i must ask it in email to the organisation, so i write it and could you look through it and correct the mistakes? What i want to write "Hello! Could you help me in on question? I'm interested in accreditation as a translator. I have the bachelor degree in IT and master degree in translating awarded by recognized overseas university. In master diploma the courses of translation consist of much more time, than minimal required number of hours, but it based on non translation speciality bachelor degree. Or I can get bachelor degree in translation in another university, which was authorised to award this qualification by the government , but not recognized overseas. In both ways I understand, that I must pass IELTS by 7. But in what way i have more chances to success? Thank you! Sincerely, Trapeznikova Daria." I will be happy if you will help me in it. especially i ask native English speakers. Thank you!

(You could start the letter Dear Sir/madam)

I'm writing to enquire about gaining accreditation as a translator. I have a Bachelor's Degree in IT and a Master's Degree in Translating (Translation?) awarded by a recognized overseas university (it might be an idea to name the University). For my Master's Degree the courses of translation consisted of more than the minimum required number of hours, but is based on a non translation speciality Bachelor's Degree. Or I can get a Bachelor's Degree in translation from another university which is authorised to award this qualification by the government, but is not recognized overseas. Both ways I realise I must pass IELTS by 7. I would really appreciate any advice you could give me which would improve my chances of succeeding.

Many thanks for your time.

Yours faithfully (note it's "faithfully" if you don't know the name of the person you are writing to, and "sincerely" if you do)

Trapeznikova Daria." 


I think this what you're tring to say, though it might be wise to see if others can further improve it.

It's a little confusing as I'm not sure whether you have a Master's in Translating or you did a different Master's in a foreign language.
