Hi guys,

I am applying to two different PhD projects in the same department (maybe even the same lab) at KCL. I finished an application last night and sent it off, only to find another similar project looking into a different problem within the same topic. More awkward still, the same administrator will be reading my application. Do you think I should customise my original cover letter to acknowledge this other project more? I really want to work within this department but do not want to come across as lazy for using the same (or a very similar) letter twice.

Any advice would be appreciated!
