Two letters of recommendation from people acquainted with your work. One recommendation letter should be from a research mentor that can discuss your passion for and experiences within research. You will need to enter the email address of your two recommenders and they will be contacted by the program directly.

You are strongly encouraged to use the notification feature to send your recommenders an email with instructions on how to submit their letter. When you click "Send Letter Request" on a saved draft application in InfoReady, your letter writers will receive an automated email containing a unique link to upload their letters, even while you continue working on your draft. If you choose to not send them a notification, your recommenders will only receive a submission link once you submit the entire application, so please be sure to complete the application well ahead of the deadline to give your recommenders adequate time to submit their letters.
