推荐信 & JOB REFERENCES

计划申请听力学研究生院的学生, 语言语音病理学, or related discipline will be required to provide letters of recommendation.  The majority, if not all, of these recommendations will come from academic faculty.  SLHS faculty have different procedures for requesting a letter of recommendation (LOR).  Use procedures published in courses or reach out to faculty directly for a copy of their LOR procedures.  Decide early which professors you plan to ask for a LOR (a rule-of-thumb is at least 6 weeks in advance of application deadline).  Only ask professors who have had the opportunity to observe your strongest skills as student and potential applicant.

Faculty are often asked to provide references for students applying for field-related jobs.  Before submitting a faculty member’s contact information to the prospective employer, 遵守以下职业礼仪.  First, do not provide the employer(s) with the professor’s contact information until you have confirmed via email that the professor will provide a reference.  Second, provide the professor with a brief job description as well as a current resume when asking if they will serve as a reference.
