Use this sample letter of recommendation for graduate school to learn about the process and how to write your own. Every graduate program requires applicants to submit recommendation letters. Don't underestimate the importance of these letters. While your transcript, standardized test scores, and admissions essay are vital components to your graduate school application, an excellent recommendation letter can make up for weaknesses in any of these areas.

Here you can find a reference (recommendation) letter, written for a student applying for Master's programme in Information Computer Technology (ICT) at a Dutch university. Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing this reference at the request of Alex Smith, who is applying for a Master program in your university.

I have known Alex for two years as his scientific adviser and mentor. During this time Alex Smith, has showed himself as a promising young specialist and researcher. His major specialization is Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, but as an exception for academic achievements, Alex was allowed by our faculty to write his projects and degree thesis in the field of Cryptography under Computer Security and Applied Algebra Department. As his mentor I have had an opportunity to observe the student's participation and overall progress. I would rate the student's overall performance as excellent, because he has got only excellent marks and has achieved marked results in different academic and student fields. Alex Smith showed immense working efficiency and competitive knowledge and skills in his chosen field by having successfully self-studied some of majors of another specialization. Alex’s 3rd year joint project “About effective elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem solution” contained interesting ideas and solutions of problems arising in Galua field arithmetic.

While publication of student works is an unusual matter and is exclusive, a revised variant of his work is now in process of publication in XXXX State Technical University’s scientific journal. Alex is broad-minded and has interests in different areas of mathematics and computer science. He has an unusual thinking style and ability to combine methods and ideas from different disciplines. This gained him success in ACM ICPC contests in our region and in international competitions, including 1rd and 2th places in ACM ICPC NEERC Western Subregional Contest in 2008 and 2007.

Alex Smith is an initiative, hard-working and responsible student with high energy level. He is able to carry out big amount of work on his own and is always involved in some activity. Right now Alex is preparing for a student science conference in XXXXXX with his work as a speaker from our University and is working on his next project, that is directly connected cryptography and parallel- and supercomputing under my supervision.

Alex is actively involved in university’s life. He participates in various university volunteer arrangements and is a leader of a student study group, dedicated to programming and Microsoft technologies.

I evaluate Alex Smith as intelligent, dependable, dedicated person, who is ready to achieve his goals. I am positive, that Alex would be a tremendous asset to your program and I highly recommend him to you without reservation. If you have any further questions with regard to her background or qualifications, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Associate Professor Peter Johnson State University Chair of Computer Security and Applied Algebra Department Email address: xxxxx@gmail.com Phone number: +1 123 456 789.
