If you’re gearing up for college applications, you might be wondering what to send your recommenders. I totally stressed about this, but here’s what worked for me!
First off, I provided them with a brag sheet that highlighted my achievements, interests, and any unique experiences that aligned with my college goals. This really helped them personalize the letters!
Also, I included a few specific points that I thought were important to mention, like my passion for environmental science and my volunteer work at the local animal shelter.
Another key thing was to remind them about the deadline for submission. I politely asked them a few weeks in advance, just to ensure they had enough time.
Finally, I made sure to express my gratitude both before and after the letters were sent. A simple thank you can go a long way!
Hope this helps! You’ve got this!
