How do letters of recommendation work?
We ask for two professional references who can vouch for your qualifications, achievements, work ethic, ability to innovate, and skills. In our application portal, you will be asked to upload two references by inputting their contact information and clicking “Send Request.” This will email your reference provider immediately with a request to upload a letter of recommendation in the portal.
The portal will show you the status of your references and allow you to resend the request if needed. Please note that both references must be received by the application deadline, so we recommend that you input your references as soon as possible and provide ample time for reference providers to complete their recommendations. Please note that it is your responsibility to ensure that letters of recommendation are submitted by the deadline.
