The letter of recommendation is a powerful component of a college application. At CityPrep, we coach students through the art of making a request that inspires an exceptional letter.
Choose the teacher who knows you best, not just the one who gave you the highest grade. For more on college application strategy, see our guide on Early Decision vs. Early Action. You can also find advice on College Board.
Ask by the end of junior year. For more on building your student profile, check out our tips on LinkedIn for high schoolers. This is a key part of your digital dossier.
