Recommendations:
You must provide 3 recommendations from people capable of judging
your professional and/or academic promise (i.e. supervisor, professor).
Because our admissions committee focuses on work experience, we
urge applicants to provide two recommendations from job-related supervisors and one from a professor.
Recommenders must complete an MLOG-specific
evaluation form that can be downloaded from the Graduate
Admissions Website. If you apply online, your recommenders also
have the option of completing and submitting this form electronically. We do not want a simple letter from them.
If your recommenders choose not to complete the form electronically,
each recommendation should be sealed in its own envelope and submitted
with your completed application. If an evaluator is mailing the
recommendation separately, have him/her send it to MLOG Admissions
(address provided above in Transcript section).
