Frequently Asked Questions

This document is a formal request asking an individual, such as a professor or employer, to write a recommendation letter that supports your application for an academic scholarship.

It's best to choose someone who knows you well and can speak positively about your qualifications, such as a professor, employer, or community leader.

Your request should include details about the scholarship, the criteria for the recommendation, and any specific points you would like the recommender to address.

Provide your recommender with your resume, details about the scholarship, and any accomplishments you would like them to highlight. This will help them write a more personalized and impactful letter.

No, this request is not a legal document but rather a formal way to ask for a recommendation. It helps clarify your needs and expectations for the letter.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are applying for academic scholarships often need to request a recommendation letter from someone who can vouch for their qualifications and character. This letter can significantly enhance their application by providing a personal endorsement from a credible source.
  • Situations requiring a strong recommendation may arise when students are transitioning from high school to college or seeking funding for graduate programs. A well-crafted request can help ensure that the recommender includes specific details that align with the scholarship's criteria.
  • For those pursuing competitive scholarships, having a recommendation letter that highlights their achievements and potential can make a difference. This request serves as a formal way to communicate the importance of the letter and the specific points that should be addressed.
  • Students who have previously worked with a professor or employer may find it beneficial to ask for a recommendation letter when applying for internships or scholarships. This request allows them to remind the recommender of their accomplishments and the context of their relationship.
  • When applying for scholarships that require specific criteria to be addressed in recommendation letters, applicants can use this form to ensure that their requests are clear and comprehensive. This helps the recommender understand what to focus on in their letter.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate when you do not have a relationship with the person you are asking for a recommendation. A strong recommendation typically comes from someone who knows you well and can provide meaningful insights.
  • – If the scholarship does not require a recommendation letter, using this form would be unnecessary. Always check the scholarship requirements before making such a request.
  • – In cases where the recommender is unable or unwilling to provide a positive endorsement, it is better to seek someone else rather than risk a negative impact on your application.
  • – This form should not be used for informal or casual requests. A recommendation letter is a formal document, and the request should reflect that seriousness.
  • – If you are applying for a scholarship that requires a specific format or content for the recommendation letter, ensure you follow those guidelines instead of using this generic request.
