Recommendation Letter Requests –
Boomer Policies a.
To write the best/strongest letter possible, I should have
had you in more than one class (where you earned a C or better) and/or you
are a long-term advisee (2 years or more). b.
New letters take 3 weeks (starting from the time I confirm
your request and receive ALL of the following materials); summer requests must be approved by the
middle of June or you will wait until fall term. c.
All requests must be accompanied by a formal WOU-Portal
request; this is the only “legal” way
I can access and talk about your records. d.
You also will have to provide a short “resume” that
highlights things like: work/job
experience, extra-curricular activities/leadership, volunteerism – preferably
relevant to your goals. e.
You NEED to provide a clear due date and address(es) for
your letter(s). If you don’t, I will
have to write a “to whom it may concern” letter and these never come across
well/strong. f.
Finally, you need to tell me what the outcome of the
application was. All Biology Faculty
want to hear whether things worked out or not – either to congratulate you,
or to help you with the next step. |
