How important are the recommendation letters and what should they contain?
Recommendation letters, which are only accepted online as part of the application process, play a significant role in the selection of applicants. Choose your recommenders carefully. Select people with excellent academic and/or professional credentials who can attest to your academic abilities and who are able to articulate ways in which you stand out. Take responsibility to ensure that they submit their recommendations online and on time according to the guidelines provided in the online application. After you have completed your application you can login to check your application status and determine if we have received the online submissions of each of your recommenders. No paper recommendations will be accepted.
