美國推薦信怎么寫

　　篇一：美國推薦信

美國推薦信怎么寫

　　幾乎所有的大學都會要求美國留學申請人提出推薦信(Recommendation Letter),評審委員借著推薦者的文字描述,可以了解申請人的背景狀況。它可說明各種成績單數字以外的其它意義,補充過于計量化、公式化審核的一種評估方式。

　　美國留學申請研究所一般要求三封推薦信推薦人的身份可以是曾經教你的教授,或是現(曾)職工作單位主管,自已視需要組合。例如,如果你畢業十年,你的推薦人可應有二封工作主管為宜,而畢業一兩年頂多一封即足夠。

　　推薦人的職務,并不一定愈高愈有利,相反地,認識你愈久而職稱不高,內容又適當地表達你的個性(Personality),才是上乘的推薦。以下,我們將提供你推薦信需注意的要點,幫助你著手起稿推薦信：

　　(一)不要拖時間,盡快起草：推薦信需要時間寫,何況又得配合老師的時間。所以盡快起草你的推薦信,以便使你的推薦者有充裕的時間,為你的推薦信效力。

　　(二)提供充份的信息給推薦者：如果你要推薦者能掌握你的優點,你得提供充份的信息。自然,要盡量具體避免空洞地陳述。同時,你也該提供你申請學校截止日期給推薦者參考,以免推薦者耽誤了你的申請。

　　(三)各推薦信的打字書信字體,宜選不同的型式,以示不同的推薦者。屬需要圈選的表格者,可以直接以手稿填入。

　　(四)在邏輯推理下,推薦者不可能知道或了解你的特質,請勿提及。譬如說,學生課外活動的表現就不適于平常教授正式科目的教授提及,除非教授也參與其中。又如其它課堂的表現,除非其它教授曾經提及過,否則不適合此科教授評論學生在其它科目的表現。再如,學生如何在圖書館查數據、寫報告花費的時間,一般老師是不可能知之甚詳,除非實在太特殊而略有耳聞,故也不適合在推薦信中提及。

　　(五)推薦信的內容盡量簡短有力：不要虛無空洞的形容詞,例如他任職于某公司時,勤勞、負責、認真、為人謙虛、誠懇等語句,不宜多引用,最好講出具體事實,才不流于形式,尤其不要抄襲市面的書信范例,以免流于陳腔濫調,落入俗套。

　　(六)如果可能的話,推薦者最好與你修的科目或學校相關。譬如說：如果你將來計劃主修英文,最好推薦人之一是英文老師。又如,如果你申請常春藤名校(IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL),推薦者若也是常春藤名校出身,則其推薦信將更有力。

　　(七)適當提及自己的“缺點”。一封推薦信如果闡述的完全是被推薦的同學的優點，不免讓人覺得有粉飾之嫌，如果能恰當地加入一些“缺點”，不僅能令推薦信真實，還會通過“似貶實褒”，反而突出了被推薦人的特殊氣質。例如計算機專業、數學專業乃至金融專業的同學，在推薦信中可以考慮加入這樣的詞句：“該生有時因為過分專注于研究工作而難以平衡生活各方面的關系，這不失為一種美中不足”。這句話似乎是在談“缺點”，但很明顯

　　這樣的“缺點”其實正是很多專業最渴望的“缺點”——廢寢忘食的工作態度，從而使得“缺點”也為申請提供了巨大幫助。

　　推薦信包含的主要題材

　　(一)與申請者的關系：表達清楚何種方式認識。譬如說是老師、指導教授,老板等。說明交往多久,如果是教授學生關系,對教授的科目做一個簡短的說明,如果推薦信者是你的老板(主管),請詳細說明你的工作職責。

　　(二)推薦者對申請人人格個性特征的印象：譬如學習精神、工作態度、與同事(同學)相處的情形、組織領導能力、學術專長、研究能力、有無工作經驗與否,并加注評語。

　　(三)推薦者對你能否順利完成學位的看法：譬如說,描述你對特別分配職務上的表現,以表現你的應變能力。又如,申請者是否有其它潛力未發揮？如果申請者的成績未盡理想,評述你對申請者的看法。解釋申請者雖然形式上的成績未盡理想,卻有極深厚的潛力尚未發揮。如果申請者轉系,也可以強調申請者有強烈的學習動機,根據推薦者的觀察,相信以申請者的表現,一定可以成功完成學業。

　　(四)推薦者對申請人人格個性特征的印象：譬如學習精神、工作態度、與同事(同學)相處的情形、組織領導能力、學術專長、研究能力、有無工作經驗與否,并加注評語。

　　(五)重述推薦者對申請人的支持及能力的確認,以再次肯定對申請人的支持與推薦。

　　美國留學申請推薦信的`模式

　　推薦信的格式有些模式可循,以下將針對各段提供模式作參考：

　　(一)抬頭可用的格式有：

　　Dear Sir/Madam;

　　To Whom It May Concern:

　　(二)第一段：引文句子可以引用如：

　　“It is a pleasure to recommend to you (name), a former student of mine at (name of university).”

　　“I an very happy to have this opportunity to recommend (name), who is presently applying for admission to your graduate (or undergraduate) program in (name of program).”

　　“I understand that (name) is applying for admissions to your graduate

　　(undergraduate) school, and has requested that I write this letter of recommendation for her/him.”

　　“In my capacity as professor at xxxx University, I have known xxx for three years, as both his/her advisor and professor.”

　　(三)第二段：這段可以提供最實質的內容。譬如,如果推薦者是教授, 解釋學生在他門下所修的課程。

　　“(name) took two of my courses during the 1984-85 academic year, as follows; “xxxxx” and “xxxxx”.”

　　“(Name) was enrolled in three of classes from September 1984 to June 1986 “xxx” and “xxx”.”

　　接下來,教授寫一些有關申請人在課堂上的表現,如完成的研究計劃、實驗室研究、研究報告、考試的成績、課堂態度、討論課的參與等,舉出實例。

　　“In my class (es), (name) did excellent work. She always listened attentively, participated activitely in class, and handed in very good written assignment. “In particular, his/her research paper on (topic) was of exceptionally high quality, and showed that s/he fully understands and has a strong background in his/her field.”

　　如果推薦人是工作主管,首先一定要仔細陳述申請人的工作職責,并對申請者工作表現作一評估。如果可能的話盡量列舉實例。

　　“When (name) held the position of (job title) in this company she was one s/he was one of my best employees. His/her job responsibilities included (describe them), and s/he carried out his/her duties with exceptional skill and professionalism.” “S/he not only did his/her own work, but also helped other employees, and made many valuable contributions to the efficient running to our firm.”

　　第二段最后一段：可以提及申請人在班上(或公司里)的比較表現(譬如排名)：

　　“I was rate (name)'s academic ability as in the top 10% of his/her class.” “Compared against other students that I have taught, I would say that (name) ranks in the upper 10%.

　　接下來,推薦者可對申請人能否成功完成學業提出看法。舉例：

　　“Based on his/her previous performance, I am certain that (name) would be a very successful student at your university.”

　　“I believe that (name) possesses all the qualities necessary to make an excellent graduate student in his/her chosen field, and am sure that s/he will make a fine addition to your campus.”

　　(四)第三段：如果還有其它話想說,請另寫一段.例如：英文能力、溝通技巧、領導才能、特殊學術或工作背景。譬如說,如果申請人欲申請的科系是企管系,推薦者可著力描寫他們有關申請人商業的專門技術、領導才能,以及申請者所參加的商業活動,例如,有關商業方面的組織社團。又如,申請人申請護理研究所,推薦者可著力描寫他們關懷的態度、處理實驗室的技能,或是對病人的奉獻。

　　(五)最后,以幾句結尾作總結；

　　“Therefore, I am happy to highly and without reservation recommend (name) for admission to your graduate program. Your kind/serious consideration of his/her application would be most appreciated.”

　　“I am thus pleased to give my full support and recommendation to (name)'s application for admission to your school. If any further information is required, please feel free to contact me.”

　　簽名：

　　Sincerely,

　　Sincerely yours,

　　Very truly yours,

　　With best regards,

　　下面結合上面的部分內容，給出一篇推薦信樣例(被推薦的同學是數學系的)

　　Dear Sir/Madam:

　　I am writing this letter of recommendation for Mr.Caleb,my former student. I have known Mr. Caleb for more than 6 years since his freshman year at "University of Minnesota". At that time, he took the course-- "Mathematical Analysis," which I taught mainly for junior students majoring in Mathematics. To my surprise, I found he was among the few students in his class who could keep up with the pace of my lectures. Moreover, he often posed thought-provoking questions during the course. Thus it was natural that I liked discussing with this young man and became familiar

　　with him. The more I knew him, the more I found he was talented at mathematics. As you can see, he got excellent scores on the course. In fact, he ranked No. 1 on this 270 hours course in the talented student class which has 34 intelligent others. With his outstanding talent and solid mathematical background, he also did quite well in most other courses during his undergraduate study. By the way, you may wonder why his undergraduate scores look not so good compared to other Chinese applicants. It is easy to explain, because he belonged to the talented student class, which were required to endure harder test papers and stricter grading than most other college students did at least at "University of Minnesota".

　　He even served as Prof. Linda s Research Assistant for one year. No one could deny his commitment to his job. As a matter of fact, Prof. Linda s electronic lab happened to be neighboring my office and I could always see him working in the lab, either repairing the instruments or helping Prof. Linda collect lab reports. Maybe one more example will demonstrate his commitment more clearly. Once he suggested compiling a FORTRAN program to solve a complicated circuit problem in his class. In order to do that, he had to do a lot of computer work. However, because there were few computers available in our computer lab, he had to wake up at 5 a.m. in winter (please note: "Twin city" is a downtown near the north border of China, so it is pretty cold in winter and the heating system is not working very well.) to ensure the 1st position of the long waiting line for his classmates and himself! At last he and his classmates finished the program successfully with his great efforts.

　　As to his personality, I would like to say Mr. Caleb is a warm-hearted, honest and upright student. He was always ready to help others. During my lectures, many students got confused at some points and I could always see Mr. Caleb help them explain during breaks. In the meanwhile, I must admit that Mr. Caleb was a bit impatient sometimes.

　　Finally, I would like to conclude my recommendation as follows: frankly, Mr. Caleb is not a genius, but I promise his great intelligence, commitment to work and his kind nature will impress you deeply. Thus I recommend him without reservation for his admission and financial aid to your program. Please feel free to contact me if needed.

　　Sincerely Yours,

　　XXX

　　篇二：推薦信格式

　　標準的出國留學推薦信包括下面幾個部分：信頭，稱呼，聯系方式和日期，正文，落款和簽名。下面天道小編帶你看看美國留學推薦信的標準格式以及各個部分都需要放什么：

　　信頭，就是說你要用帶有自己學校標志的信紙來寫，因為你的推薦人一般是自己學校的老師。我們的推薦信是自己打印的，你可以做好一個信頭放上去，如果你所在的系里有自己的信頭，就建議你使用自己系的標志信頭，那樣更好。有時候申請學校可能會要求，推薦信必須具有信頭，并且信頭不能是打印出來的，這時候你就得去學校的商店里買那種專用的帶有信頭的打印紙了。在北大，學校的博實商店就有賣這種紙的，分紅色和藍色兩種顏色的信頭。

　　推薦信的稱呼可以用 Dear Sir/Madam，Dear Admission Officer，Dear Colleague(要求你的推薦人曾經在所申請學校工作過) ，或者 To whom it may concerns等等。

　　聯系方式和日期寫在推薦信最上方，信頭之后，一般來說是寫推薦人的聯系方式而不是對方學校的聯系方式。聯系方式在前，日期在后;聯系方式寫在左邊，日期寫在右邊。當然這里的聯系方式也可以不寫，如果你在落款中已經寫明了的話。抬頭和落款中只要有一處寫到聯系方式就行。寫聯系方式的時候，注意寫上推薦人的職務、職稱、電話以及 email。

　　正文也是按照標準的英文正式文體格式，每段頂格寫，段落之間空一行。

　　結尾的落款，首先是頂格寫一句敬稱，Yours sincerely 或者 Sincerely yours即可。然后寫上推薦人的聯系方式。下面給出一個最簡單的例子： ours Sincerely,

　　rofessor XXX

　　ice Dean, School of Physics

　　eking University

　　注意，中間空了幾行就是為了留給教授簽名用的。教授的簽名是憑他自己的習慣，有時候姓在前，有時候名在前，所以你的 Professor XXX 中的名字一定要和簽名一致。至于這個簽名是英文還是中文，要看教授的習慣。一般要求用英文簽名，如果教授習慣用中文，那可以用中文。

　　至于整篇推薦信的字體，要求統一，不要使用不同的字體。因為你有三封推薦信要寫，所以你應該盡量使用不同的信紙，字體，字號，頁邊距等等，盡量使得三封推薦信的樣式看起來各不相同。

　　要知道教授給你簽推薦信是一個很繁瑣的過程，一般來說一封推薦信需要 3 個簽名：推薦信上一個，推薦表格上一個，信封上一個;然后還要在推薦表上簽一個日期。你申請十幾個學校的話，教授就要簽 50 個左右的名字，是很累的。

　　如果你得到教授授權，可以自己代替教授簽名，那你就模仿教授的筆跡簽名好了，這樣即使對方學校有疑問過來核實，由于教授給你授權了，學校也不會查出什么東西來。

　　有時候教授不愿意給你簽很多的名字，而且你經常跑去找他簽名也不好，畢竟不能總去麻煩教授。這個時候你還是自己模仿好了，隨便拿幾封推薦信讓教授簽了，后面的你全部自己代筆模仿。一般來說教授給你簽推薦信的時候，是不會看你的推薦信是用在哪個學校的申請上的，所以即便是對方學校覺得你的簽名不太對勁，來找教授核實，教授反正也不知道他的推薦信是用在哪些學校上面的，所以肯定回復說這是我寫的。當然如果碰上上面說過的把推薦信連簽名都復印再寄過來的情況就沒辦法了，你就直接去和教授解釋一下吧。

　　至于出國留學推薦信的字數嘛，沒有什么很嚴格的要求。只要你把話說清楚了，把被推薦人的特點敘述的清晰明了，就是一封好的推薦信。有人說推薦信一定要在一頁以內，其實不必，一頁半的樣子都是可以的，只要你是真的有話要說。你能寫得更短當然更好，寫不短也沒有關系。不過也要注意，推薦信總長度不要超過兩頁，否則真的沒人愿意看。
