Please encourage your Recommenders to complete their letters of recommendation online.  This will greatly speed application processing.  If, however, one or more of your Recommenders prefers using a paper recommendation, please follow these instructions:

• Print a copy of the Letter of Recommendation Form from the ‘Downloadable Forms’ section of the online application or from the link on the bottom of this page.
• Complete the ‘To Be Completed by the Applicant’ section of each copy
• Give the Letter of Recommendation Form and an envelope to each Recommender and request that they return the recommendation to you in the sealed envelope with their name signed across the sealed flap (be specific about the date that you would like them to return the recommendation to you)
• Submit the sealed envelopes in your Supporting Application Materials.

Applicants are not permitted to inspect letters of recommendation in their Hunter files.  Admitted and enrolled students can make an appointment with the Graduate Admissions Office to  view  their letters of recommendation unless the right of access has been waived on the form.
