Dear Admissions Officer Amy Adams:
It is with great pleasure that I am writing this letter of recommendation for Susie Student. In the past four years, I have taught Susie in a number of visual arts courses in all of which she has excelled. Based on my experience with Susie, I can say without the shadow of a doubt that she is one of the most naturally talented and hardworking art students with whom I have had the opportunity to work. She is exceptionally well prepared to move onto the collegiate level, and it is clear to me that she has a very bright future in the creative arts.
Susie is very mature for her age and she approaches her art with an astute sense of objectivity. She processes constructive criticism well and is always willing to go the extra mile in order to take her work to the highest level of formal and conceptual refinement. Susie has a very methodical creative process; she develops her concepts thoughtfully, creates interesting exploratory sketches, and builds meticulous scale models before she commits herself, with confidence, to the fabrication process. Once Susie begins fabrication, she works with precision and purpose. Her skills of craftsmanship are highly developed and she has an incredibly astute attention to detail. In addition, I have been impressed by Susie’s ability to couple her attention to detail with a broader stylistic focus that allows her to consider how effectively her compositions function as a whole. Therein, Susie creates sculptures that are cohesive in form and eloquent in their communication of sophisticated concepts. All in all, Susie is an incredibly well rounded art student who has found a way to balance all of the aspects of the creative process with apparent ease.
Aside from Susie’s natural artistic ability, it is important to touch on her work ethic and her presence in the classroom setting. Susie never settles for second best and she utilizes class time in a productive and determined manner. She arrives to class early and works late when the need arises. Due to this approach, Susie quickly became a role model for her peers in all of my classes. Students observed Susie’s commitment to the creative process and they strived to excel as she did. Though Susie is very talented, she is a humble young woman who never lets her abilities go to her head. She thrives off of the entire creative process both the successes and the challenges. Most importantly, Susie is always willing to help her classmates as they create. She offers both technical and conceptual support to her peers in a kind and caring manner that speaks to Susie’s patience and her understanding of the importance of collaborative learning.
In looking ahead to Susie’s college years, I am certain that she is ready to tackle the rigorous and challenging curriculum of the collegiate level. Susie will not take the path of least resistance, rather, she will push herself to continue to grow and develop as a creative thinker. She will immerse herself in her new community and she will share her energy, enthusiasm, commitment and talent with her peers and her professors. Susie Student is an exceptional candidate and it is with the utmost confidence that I recommend her to your college or university. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions.
Sincerely,
Timothy Teacher

Re: Letter of Appraisal for _________
Dear Mr. Murray:
I write on behalf of ________’s application for a Rhodes Scholarship. I believe _______ to be an exemplary student-scholar as well as a person of tremendous character with significant leadership skills.
I heard of _________ before I met her. A top student of mine and Truman finalist came into my office and announced that she had met the next Truman finalist—a first year woman who was full of energy for leading the Students for Choice organization. The young woman I encountered in my American Politics class that next semester was, in fact, quite enthusiastic for her studies and a solid, conscientious student. Full of questions, ________ regularly participated in class discussions and probed the materials with a zest for learning. In her first year, however, I was more struck by her openness to the world than her analytic ability.
What happened over the next two years was rather astounding from my perspective and a lesson to me not to underestimate any student. ________ still has a refreshing wide-eyed quality about her but she is now more fully self-possessed and has a command of analytic reasoning that places her in the top 1% of the students I have encountered here at Willamette. Her enthusiasm and energy have been matched over the years with a discipline that is remarkable in someone her age. This discipline is not about study habits, though I would note that she always seems to be ahead of schedule, turning in assignments early and working on projects weeks and months in advance. Her discipline is a commitment to learning.
As evidence of this discipline, I offer her engagement with me. While _________ did not receive the top grade in my American Politics class and generally felt that she did not perform terribly well, she continued to seek out my advice and feedback. Although she went on to stellar performances in other classes with other professors, she sought me out on policy questions, asked for summer reading recommendations and generally kept a running dialogue with me. In fact, as I have watched her progress over the last three years, I note with amazement her ability to handle criticism and to grow and learn from it. Where other students turn defensive, __________ wades in absorbing other perspectives and viewpoints, debating ideas, adjusting her conclusions as necessary. She is undaunted but properly reflective, a rare combination that speaks volumes, I believe, about her abilities as a scholar and a leader. This past summer _________ engaged me in an email discussion about poverty and welfare issues, reading extensively on her own and asking me for more—more to read and more to think about.
This semester ________ is enrolled in two of my courses. Topics in Public Policy examines a number of case studies including tax policy, environmental policies, education and housing and asks students to evaluate different theories about the policy process based upon those cases. This is a difficult course because it requires that students grasp complex specifics; they have to know why, for example, certain elements of the business community might push for accelerated depreciation schedules in tax policy and what is the cumulative effect of rule changes governing the amendment process. However, I also ask them to step back and to draw lessons from the specific case studies in order to say something about the nature of democratic decision-making. While many students tend to be good at one or the other, ________ excels at both. She is well on her way to graduate level thinking and evaluation.

To Whom It May Concern:
It is with great pleasure that I recommend Evan Grayrock for employment at your company. From January through April 2014, Evan was an intern at our corporation, Moneypenny Real Estate. I have been his direct supervisor during this time.
Evan primarily assisted us in two projects:
In one project, we were faced with a strained liquidity situation of a partnering business. We conducted a cash forecast and assessed the other parties properties for a potential partial asset takeover.
In another project, we prepared the sale of one of our regional real estate portfolios. Evan was of great help when it come to preparing sales documents, presentations and object description. The project was closed successfully shortly after the end of Evan’s internship.
Evan showed good knowledge of financial terms and cash flow analyses and was eager and quick to learn when he came across obstacles. His very diligent and sedulous work ethic was much appreciated especially when project deadlines came close. Evan was also a very likeable and loyal colleague. He integrated quickly into our team and gained everyone’s trust and respect by constantly delivering quality results.
Based on his performance at Moneypenny Real Estate, I have no hesitations in recommending him for employment at your company. Feel free to contact me with any further questions about Evan.
