Letters of recommendation

Some scholarships require at least one online letter of recommendation. We recommend asking faculty, current or former employers, or professional colleagues to serve as a reference. Do not ask family, friends, resident assistants, peer mentors, or student peers to provide a reference.

An application that requires a letter of recommendation will include a section to fill in your reference provider’s name and email address. It’s important to make sure this information is accurate. You should obtain agreement from your potential reference before beginning your application. 

You should give your reference provider plenty of time to write a letter on your behalf. Communicate with your chosen provider in person or via phone so they know to expect a reference request from scholarships@brockport.edu.

Note: Letters of Recommendation are due at the public application deadline. All references must be submitted through the scholarship portal.
