Remaining Recommendations for 2021: 09

If you need a recommendation letter and have decided that I am the right choice to write it for you, please be aware that I receive dozens of requests every semester and that I take the task seriously. Therefore, I must set a series of conditions that make writing these feasible and warranted.
Please check the following points to verify that you meet the conditions.

• The due date for the letter is at least three weeks away.
• You have taken a full course with me, you completed a large class project under my supervision, or participated in a research project under my supervision.
  • If you took a class: You must have gotten at least an A- AND you must have made an impression for me to be able to place you (participation, quality of work, etc.). If I don't remember you, I can't recommend you.
  • If you completed a class project: You must have made an outstanding job on it.
  • If you completed a research project: Your contribution must have been significant.

If you meet these criteria, make sure that you make a request in the following fashion:

• Send me your full name.
• Indicate when it was you first met me and when did you first complete work (attend a class) under me.
• Send me a description of the position/internship/job you are applying to.
• Explain the recommendation process:
  • Do I give you a letter?
  • Do I submit a letter to a link you provide?
  • Do I receive a request from somewhere and provide data there?

Please note that I will complete at most 4 separate recommendations for you. They each entail different processes so it is not as simple as uploading a letter. Choose your recommendation targets with this in mind.
