Letters+of+Recommendation

As you apply for jobs, awards and honors, college admission, and submit scholarship applications, you will find that you will need to obtain letters of recommendation from individuals who can speak highly of your education, ability and character.
 * Requesting Letters of Recommendation: **

Nobody likes to get a request to write a letter of recommendation, only to find out that they have very little information about the student other than what they know about him/her in the confines of class. With that said, in order to get a "glowing" letter, YOU must supply your recommender with the information you would like included in your letter. Complete the following form and present it when requesting a letter of recommendation. Suggestion: On a master copy, complete information that will be the same every time the form is filled out. Make copies of that so you have minimal information to complete with each request.


 * Seniors: ** Complete the Letter of Recommendation Request Form. If you would like copies made, please ask. If you need a letter of recommendation for any of the upcoming scholarships due this semester, be sure to submit in a timely manner. Kallas rule: At least 48 hours for first letter and 24 hours for subsequent letters. Sometimes it can be turned around faster, but there are no guarantees.
