推荐信

I love to support my students as they seek new opportunities and adventures, and often these require letters of recommendation. If you would like to request a letter, please contact me as soon as possible so that we can discuss whether I am the best person to write your letter of support.

If I have agreed to write a recommendation for you, please follow the guidelines listed below. They are adapted from those developed by my colleagues Michael Orrison and Karl Haushalter and will help make the letter-writing process go smoothly.

给我发封邮件 (vosburg@kgfascist.com) at least two weeks before the first deadline containing:

  • an unofficial PDF copy of your transcript,
  • a copy of your personal statement (if applicable),
  • a copy of your CV or résumé, and
  • responses to the following questions (the more detailed, the better):
  1. What is your name, year and major?
  2. 你在申请什么? (scholarship, graduate school, 等.)
  3. List the programs to which you are applying, together with due dates and how I should submit letters (URL, 电子邮件地址, I should wait until I get an email from them, 等.).
  4. How long have I known you (years/months), and what is/are my relationship(s) to you (instructor, 顾问, 等.)? Have you graded or tutored for me? If so, for what class(es) and when?
  5. For what class(es) have I had you, what final grade(s) did I assign you, and how did you distinguish yourself in my class(es)?
  6. How would you describe yourself?
  7. What are some of your academic accomplishments?
  8. What are some of your nonacademic accomplishments?
  9. What makes me particularly qualified to write a letter for you?
  10. What makes you particularly qualified for this position/honor/award?
  11. What are your long-term goals, and will this position/honor/award help? 如果有,如何?
  12. Additional comments (research, interesting jobs, hobbies, 等.)?

If a hardcopy letter is required, please give me a folder with all necessary paperwork forms and addressed HMC 化学 Department envelopes (see Kim Young) without stamps.

给我发邮件提醒 随着最后期限的临近, and feel free to chat with me about other ways you can make the letter writing process go as smoothly as possible for you and your letter writers. 祝你好运!

David Vosburg, Professor of 化学, Harvey Mudd College.
