LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION –

Not all colleges require recommendation letters from teachers and/or counselors.  However, if you need one, be sure you give your recommender (teacher and/or counselor) your most updated academic resume or “brag sheet” to complete the recommendation.

ALWAYS allow 2 weeks for any Letter of Recommendation requests.

DO NOT ask for Letters of recommendation during a holiday break.

Keep track of deadlines!
