• When you consider teachers to ask to write you a letter of recommendation (LOR), please choose teachers in classes where you have shown growth, challenged yourself, or contributed substantially.

     

    Just because you were in a class does not mean the teacher can write you a SOLID letter of recommendation.

     

    Solid letters give SPECIFIC examples and have a plethora of vignettes to share. In some cases, "average" LOR's will not advance your chances and may, in fact, hurt you. 

     

    In general, I need a minimum of two weeks’ notice for a LOR turnaround. I also require the following four items turned in at the time of your request:

    1. Counselor Reference Counselor Reference DOCX

    2. Completed Typed Resume

    3. Completed 'Will you write me a letter' Will you write me a letter DOCX

    4. Copy of transcripts from Infinite Campus, counselor or registrar.
