Where to start? 

Often it can be difficult to write a quality letter of recommendation (evaluation) for students when given little guidance about how your evaluation is utilized by professional schools in the application process.

 

The printable resources are designed to help facilitate the writing process, provide you helpful information and tips on how to:

• Format the letter
• Highlight your knowledge of an OSU student applicant
• Submit the letter

Professional Schools do not expect any one letter writer to provide information pertaining to every characteristic or speak to all qualities of an applicant. 

Please note these resources are provided as guidelines only, are optional and are not intended to prescribe your writing methods.
