- Requesting a letter of recommendation.
- - It should have the structure of a formal letter even if the language isn’t so formal.
- Opening (“Dear ____,” or “Hey ____,”)
- “It was great to meet with you last month. I hope everything is going well.”
- Reason for writing (I’m emailing you to request a letter of recommendation for Northeastern University.)
- The writer can write a better letter if she knows what program or job you’re applying for, so she can talk about your characteristics that are relevant to that.
- Thank her for her time and invite her to ask you if she needs any more information.
- “I’m looking forward to your reply.”
- “Thanks,
- [name]”

- You can google “preparing for a college interview” for general suggestions.
- It will be pretty similar to a job interview. (More for a graduate program than undergraduate.)
- Some typical job interview questions can be found at http://www.monster.com/career-advice/article/100-potential-interview-questions
