Letters of Recommendation in Signed, Sealed Envelopes?
Wednesday November 19, 2008
Is it an imposition to ask faculty to not only write letters of recommendation but to return them to the student, each in a separate signed and sealed envelope. Is it too much to ask? Is organizing all that paperwork unreasonable?
Comments
I believe it is NEVER an imposition to ask faculty to write their letter and send it in a sealed envelope. You can help them by providing an addressed and stamped envelope and another for the actual letter (write on the envelope what it contains).
It seems that if the faculty member is already willing to write a letter for you, same person would like that letter to carry some weight and credibility.
I have a question: How do you get the requires letters of recommendation for graduate school if your Bachelors is from an online school?
