I am writing to a professor in a Japanese university asking for an invitation letter, but I do not know whether I am being polite and expressing myself clearly. And I know my writing is not fluency or flowing, but I can not use the linking words properly. Hope you can help me to correct all my mistakes, thank you!
Dear Prof. XXX
I am so appreciated for your kind forwarding last month, and finally we got contact with the XXX and all of the nominees in our school have sent our application forms to HU. Now we are waiting for the result.
I chose your courses, XX and XX during the exchanging year, which must be very important parts of my study. I believe it would be amazing if I fortunately get the chance to spend my last ungraduate year at HU and take your courses, I am looking forward to it.
This opportunity is valuable for me to get to adapt the learning environment in Japan. Luckily I will be sponsored by Chinese Scholarship Council (CSC), and it will pay for my living expenses during my study aboard. But what it requests includes an invitation letter from HU, and it seems that the formal result of HU will fail to meet the deadline. I know it is a bit unreasonable and excessive but I am quite worried about it. Could it be possible for you to write an invitation for me? It will be really appreciated if you would like to help me to get the scholarship in time.
I am looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
XXX

I so appreciate your kind forwarding last month. We finally got in contact with the XXX, and all of the nominees in our school have sent our application forms to HU. We are now awaiting the results.
I chose your courses, XX and XX, during (or "for") the exchanging year, which were (if you already took them, or "will be" if you are going to take them in the future) very important parts of my study. It would be an amazing opportunity to spend my last undergraduate year at HU and take your courses. I am looking forward to it.
This opportunity will be valuable for me into get to adapting to the learning environment in Japan. I will be sponsored by Chinese Scholarship Council (CSC), and it which will pay for my living expenses during my study aboard. The CSC (or sponsorship) requires an invitation letter from HU, and it seems that the formal response from HU will fail to meet the deadline. I know it is a bit unreasonable and excessive, but I am quite worried about it. If possible, I would greatly appreciate a written invitation from you. Would you be willing to do so? Thank you for your consideration in helping me obtain this scholarship.
I am looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
XXX

Note: In this sentence: "I know it is a bit unreasonable and excessive, but I am quite worried about it.", It is a little unclear what you are referring to as excessive/unreasonable. The deadline? The request from the sponsorship? Asking the professor? You might consider leaving this one out. Or perhaps you could reword it to something like, "It is very important to me to meet the sponsorship's deadline." Just my suggestion! Good luck!
