While it’s common for students to initiate the drafting of recommendation letters for professors to review and edit, this often leads to excessive praise, overshadowing the necessity of providing an honest and well-balanced evaluation in the recommendation letter.

However, here are 6 crucial tips to consider when composing a recommendation letter. ✅

✨ But first make sure to SAVE this post, so you can come back later!

1. Closeness of Professional Relationship:
The strength of the recommender’s professional relationship with the applicant is crucial.
The recommender should have worked closely with the applicant in some capacity, such as a professor, supervisor, or mentor.

2. Measured Tone:
The recommendation letter should have a measured and balanced tone.
Excessive or over-the-top praise should be avoided, as it can undermine the credibility of the letter.

3. Examples and Specifics:
The letter should provide concrete examples and situations where the applicant has displayed their good qualities. Generalized praise without specific instances holds little value to the reader.

4. Candid Evaluation:
A recommendation letter should be a candid evaluation of the candidate’s abilities and potential.
It should not solely focus on positive attributes but also acknowledge areas where the candidate may need improvement.

5. Relevance to Goals:
Ideally, the letter should discuss how pursuing a specific degree (e.g., an MS degree) will help the applicant overcome shortcomings and achieve their academic or career goals.

6. Supervision and Guidance:
It’s advisable to obtain recommendation letters from individuals who have supervised, guided, or mentored the applicant. Recommenders who have directly observed the applicant’s work are better positioned to provide valuable insights.

These tips can help ensure your recommendation letter shines in the graduate school application process! 🚀
