Upload your current resume to your online graduate application.
Identify two references who will provide you letters of support. At least one letter should be from a faculty member at a college or university who can speak to your potential for success as a graduate student. Letters of support should address your:
written and oral communication skills
aptitude for advanced study
creative talent
potential for a successful career
You will enter the names and email addresses of your three references on your online graduate application. After you submit your application, your references will be emailed a form to fill out. Once your reference completes and submits the form, it's automatically uploaded to your online graduate application.
