Recommendation Letters

This page is for those students who are planning on asking for a recommendation letter from me.

  • In order for me to write a meaningful letter of recommendation I would need to have had some interactions with you. If for example you have only been in one my lecture hall classes with another 200 or so students and have never had any one-on-one interaction with me it is unlikely I would have anything of value to put in the letter. In such cases feel free to still reach out to me, but be aware that I might decline.
  • When requesting for a letter of recommendation please send me the following in PDF format.
    1.  Your updated resume.
    2. Your updated transcript.
    3. The list of schools/programs you are applying to.
    4. A brief paragraph or two about why you are applying and what you would like to take away from the program that you are applying for.
    5. The courses you have taken with me.
    6. Anything else that might help me write a helpful letter.
