You may find that you need a letter of recommendation (or a few) for certain college or scholarship applications. These letters are usually written by your teacher, a coach, club sponsor, or anyone else that can comment of your academic ability, work ethic, and other characteristics. 

​

In order to request a letter of recommendation, please: 

​

• Contact the person, asking if it is possible for them to write the letter. 

• Give them AT LEAST two weeks before the deadline to write the letter. 

• Let them know what the deadline is, as well as the way to submit the letter. 

• Give them a resume or a Senior Info Sheet for reference (this is REQUIRED if you would like a counselor to write a letter for you). The video to the right can help you to find where the Naviance Resume Builder and Senior Info Sheet can be found.

• (Highly Recommended) Write them a thank you note.
