Recommendation Letters

I value writing letters for students I know well. If you would like a letter, please contact me as soon as possible. Please send the items below at least two weeks before the first deadline.

What to send

• Please create a list of all the universities and their deadlines, and share it via a Google Sheet. 

• Please send me your transcript, CV, and any statements you plan to submit.

• Please list the courses you took with me, including the term, year, and grade you received, if applicable.

• Share specific examples from our work that show your strengths. For example, a project where you led the design, solved a hard bug, or helped the team finish on time. List any special or ah-ha moments during class, lab, or research meetings? 

• List moments you asked a challenging question and that advanced everyone's knowledge on that topic. 

• Please let me know your long-term goals and how this program will help you reach them.

Timing and reminders

Please send gentle reminders one week, three days, and one day before each deadline. I will confirm once I submit each letter.
