request evaluations of every science faculty/TA—we encourage students to
submit at least two letters of recommendation from faculty in any department
who knows them well.
Evaluations/Letters should address the

Subject: Outside Letters of
Recommendation
Hi Mrs. Wood-Hill,
I am in the process of obtaining outside letters of recommendation from my
former employer. I was wondering if there is a standard length for such
letters? Are they typically contained to one page or are they frequently longer
than that? Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Zach Hoffman
