Recommendation Letters are part of your application checklist. Typically you would need to have 2 or 3 individuals recommend your admissions. These must be people who have either taught or worked closely with you in the past four years and who are able to assess your qualifications as a student.
The recommendation is a confidential letter written by the teacher/ professor/ employer discussing your academic potential, eligibility for research and ability to successfully manage the graduate program. Since, the letter is not supposed to be discussed with you; your concern should be whether the recommender would write a positive recommendation for you. If yes, approach him/her for a recommendation.
You can assist your recommender by providing them a draft for approval along with a copy of your resume listing important activities and events that you have participated in, positions of leadership and any significant achievements they could mention in their letter.
If your teachers/ employers allow you to draft the letters, we customize and personalize letters of recommendation drafts, which your teachers/ employers can then simply review and edit and sign. We will guide you thoroughly on how to prepare your recommendations and who to get them from. |
