You must request the letter three weeks in advance of the deadline.
I will submit it one week before the deadline, and email you
confirmation. If you do not hear from me, please send me a polite
reminder.
What I need from you, preferably as a single packet of information:
- A clear checklist with all the names, deadlines, and how to
submit to keep me organized. Include postal addresses even if I will be
submitting electronically to help me address the letter.
- Paper forms with stamped and addressed envelopes, as required.
You should fill out all of the heading information they require on
their form (listed on the "contact" page of my website).
- An unofficial transcript.
- Your CV or resume.
- A representative letter of interest/personal statement for these types of programs.
- A brief explanation of what each program is.
- Any special requests. Feel free to ask me to talk about certain
strengths or highlight specific achievements; if I am not inclined to,
I will feel no pressure to do so.
