Almost all graduate school applicants are
required to furnish at least 2-3 letters of recommendation as a vital part of
the application process. Apart from your test scores and achievements, letters
of recommendation can prove to be a key factor in the admission process.
Purpose
A letter of recommendation should bring forward a well-written evaluation and present ample information with anecdotes to help the selection committee in taking a decision.
Preferably, a recommender is a person, who has
been in an academic or professional relationship with the applicant. The
document should maintain a fine balance between the scholarly capabilities and
personal traits of the applicant.
Highlighting the experience, strengths and professional
caliber, letters of recommendation come in handy to explain some weakness or
ambiguity in an applicant’s academic record, such as, major illness, financial
hardship or other similar factors.
Lipi Editing's review service will help you get these letters
professionally edited and formatted, with a balance in tone and flow for you to
obtain a seat in the graduate school of your choice.
