Recommenders will be asked how long they have known the applicant and in what capacity, characteristics of the applicant that would be considered strengths and characteristics that would be considered weaknesses. You will be notified by automated email when your recommenders have completed the process. Both letters must be received by the application deadline for admissions consideration.
