Three recommendations
The Engineering Master’s Degree Programs require a minimum of three recommendations (one must be from your current supervisor). It is strongly recommended that you use the electronic letters of recommendation feature that is included in the online ApplyTexas application. Please read this information carefully:
- When you complete the "References" portion of the online application for admission, you will provide the names and email addresses of those individuals which you have asked to provide a recommendation. Be sure that the email addresses are current and accurate.
- You will be asked to inform us if you wish to waive the right to view your letters after they are submitted. Please indicate this by answering the associated question on the application for admission.
- Upon submission of the completed application, an e-mail message will be sent to the addresses you provide and your recommenders will be asked to visit a website where they can complete a questionnaire. Your recommender will be informed if you have not waived your right to view his/her letter of recommendation.
- If you make a mistake on the email addresses or if you need to replace one recommender with another please contact the Graduate & International Admissions Center at gradref@austin.utexas.edu.
- If your recommender is not able to use the electronic recommendation form, you can go to the URL below to view and print a paper Request for Reference form and send it to your recommender. http://www.utexas.edu/student/admissions/giadownload/gradref.pdf
