In choosing references  you should   Ask people who know you well and who will write strong recommendations Make sure you ve answered all the questions
The others may be from faculty or job supervisors Have someone double check it to make sure it reads well and there are no mistakes
The more academic the program  the greater number of academic references  professors with PhDs  you should secure  Remember that in writing a recommendation  someone is doing you a favor  be gracious and be sure to give them an ample amount of time to write the letter For online applications make sure that each document is uploaded correctly
This gives them the option of saying no or insuring that if they say yes  your letter will be strong Most graduate schools request three letters of recommendation

An interview can be a very important opportunity for you to persuade an institution admissions office or committee that you would be an asset to its program Interfolio  the premier credentials  dossier and online portfolio service  is now available to students at Yeshiva University
