Tips for Writing a Scholarship Recommendation Letter Be sure you know the student well enough to write on their behalf. Open with a formal salutation. Tailor your letter. Discuss the student's potential, talents, and skills. Give specific examples that validate your claims.
Dear Mr./Ms./Mx. Recipient's name / Scholarship Committee, Start with an opening paragraph that briefly introduces who you are, and your relevant experience, how you learned about the scholarship, and why you are interested in applying.
Start with an interesting introduction that states your name, why you're writing the letter, and the specifics of the scholarship application. Sum up your main ideas into 2 to 3 well-structured paragraphs. Every paragraph should have one main idea. Keep it brief as it shouldn't be lengthy.
First paragraph – identify what you are applying for. Second paragraph (or combine with first paragraph) – explain your goals. Third paragraph – talk about yourself, including what the scholarship committee wants to know about you. Fourth paragraph – summarize how you have met their requirements.
Begin by clearly stating the purpose of your letter - to apply for a scholarship. Mention the specific scholarship you are applying for, including the name and any relevant details about the award. Next, provide a brief overview of your academic and extracurricular achievements.
John is a very humble individual who gets along well with his peers and the entire medical team. It is therefore without reservations that I recommend him to you for any residency program that he may be seeking. I am sure he will be a valuable asset to your organization.
Writing a strong letter Address the criteria of the award and how the student fulfills them. Emphasize the student's strengths. Provide specific anecdotes of things the student has done that are impressive. Use your comments to complement the rest of the application.
Salutation: Use a formal greeting, such as ``Dear Scholarship Committee'' or ``Dear (Specific Name/Title if known).'' State Your Purpose: Clearly indicate that you are applying for the scholarship. Hook the Reader: Start with a compelling statement or story that grabs attention.
Open with a formal salutation. To Whom It May Concern and Dear Scholarship Committee are both acceptable salutations.
