Steps to Requesting Letters of Recommendation:

• Research what your colleges actually need. Two recommendations is typical.

• Ask your teacher, employer, coach, etc (via email or in person) if they would be a recommender! It's important to ask a non-family member who knows you best and can highlight your strengths.

• If they agree, fill out the Letter of Recommendation Request Form and share it with your letter writer.

• Show your appreciation. Send a thank you letter! The CRC has thank you cards available for students!
