如何寫推薦信？

推薦信范例
?

大多數(shù)學(xué)校都要求申請人提供二至三封推薦信。有力的推薦是錄取的重要條件之一。推薦信要客觀、公正、切忌流于形式，內(nèi)容空洞，要與申請人的其它材料（如成績單）等相符。推薦信也應(yīng)注意格式、文法等。因?yàn)橄騺碛小懊麕煶龈咄健敝f。推薦信的格式與一般書信基本相同。有信頭，發(fā)信日期，收信人姓名，稱呼，正文，信尾謙稱，簽名，推薦人姓名，職稱及工作單位等部分。但推薦信還應(yīng)著重以下方面：

　　1. 為了便于校方查閱，必須提到被推薦者的全名。
　　2. 必須交待與被推薦者的認(rèn)識期間（何時(shí)開始認(rèn)識或認(rèn)識多久），認(rèn)識程度（偶爾見面或密切接觸）及關(guān)系（師生關(guān)系，上下級關(guān)系，同事等）。
　　3. 對被推薦者的優(yōu)點(diǎn)介紹及評價(jià)，這是推薦信的核心。主要包括被推薦者的天賦，學(xué)習(xí)成績，研究能力，工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)，學(xué)習(xí)精神，組織能力，品行及個(gè)性方面。
　　4. 必須表明推薦人的態(tài)度，是極力推薦還是有保留地推薦。

　　最近一些學(xué)校出于各種原因，設(shè)計(jì)了推薦表格，由推薦人填寫，但其主要內(nèi)容也和推薦信涉及的相同。

　　After the class, he had personal talks with me several times. He indicated a great interest in computer hardware, In my opinion, Mr. Chen has a potential in Computer Science, which can be further developed.
　　In view of his previous achievements in this College, I am firmly convinced that Mr. Chen will make a successful graduate student. Your favorable consideration of his admission will be highly appreciated.

Through his analysis of data, I saw his devotion to the teamwork and his great potential in this field, although analyzing large numbers of financial data was challenging. He often participated in extracurricular activities contributing a great deal to community affairs.

推薦信的份量直接關(guān)系到能否出國留學(xué)，能否獲得獎學(xué)金等，作為對外聯(lián)系的材料，是其中一份較為重要的文件。推薦信的目的是通過國內(nèi)專家向?qū)Ψ浇榻B申請人的工作、學(xué)習(xí)和專業(yè)方向等情況。在出國申請是否成功的諸多要素中，有力的推薦信是錄取的重要條件之一，其份量僅次于于本科成績單和標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化考試（GRE、GMAT、TOEFL）成績。
　多數(shù)學(xué)校都要求申請人提交兩封到三封的推薦信，由教授、系主任或工作主管直接寄給指定的單位。
　一、選擇推薦人
　推薦信是了解申請人的重要依據(jù)，在研究生課程中尤其如此。申請人可以選擇現(xiàn)在或以前的老師、教授或雇主。推薦人必須熟悉學(xué)生的學(xué)習(xí)情況，了解學(xué)生的學(xué)習(xí)目的是否明確，在學(xué)術(shù)上是否有前途，以及學(xué)生的適應(yīng)能力、創(chuàng)造能力、品行和特長。
　書寫推薦信的最理想的人選是一封由系主任寫，一封由專業(yè)課教授寫，一封由自己的導(dǎo)師寫。不過，對方若無規(guī)定，則除了自己的親屬之外，任何人皆可為推薦人。推薦人一般應(yīng)具備高級技術(shù)職稱，如教授、副教授、研究員、副研究員等。如果推薦人在國內(nèi)外學(xué)術(shù)界享有盛譽(yù)，或者被申請就讀學(xué)校聘為客座教授，或者曾經(jīng)在該校講過學(xué)，那么這樣的推薦人寫的推薦信就具有很強(qiáng)的效力了。
　二、推薦信的內(nèi)容
　　推薦信一般應(yīng)包括下列內(nèi)容：
被推薦人的基本情況介紹。側(cè)重于個(gè)人的畢業(yè)時(shí)間、學(xué)校、所獲學(xué)位以及個(gè)人的專業(yè)經(jīng)歷。
推薦人對被推薦人的基本評價(jià)。側(cè)重于被推薦人的專業(yè)基礎(chǔ)、個(gè)性、特點(diǎn)、工作態(tài)度和在學(xué)術(shù)上的前途估計(jì)。若是推薦研究生，推薦人還需進(jìn)一步說明其深造學(xué)習(xí)的基礎(chǔ)和當(dāng)前所具備的研究能力。顯然，恰如其分地評價(jià)被推薦人的基礎(chǔ)、能力和前途，比言過其實(shí)的贊譽(yù)更令人情服，更具有實(shí)際意義。?
推薦人可以著重介紹被推薦人曾經(jīng)獲得的獎勵，發(fā)表過的論文，參加過的重要學(xué)術(shù)會議，以及曾在學(xué)生組織或?qū)W術(shù)團(tuán)體中的任職等來支持自己的評價(jià)。?
推薦人還必須清楚地表明被推薦人留學(xué)的身份是研究生還是訪問學(xué)者，專業(yè)領(lǐng)域和研究方向是什么。?
　　如果大學(xué)提供了現(xiàn)成的推薦表格，則必須按這類表格認(rèn)真逐項(xiàng)填寫。推薦表格中一般有學(xué)生綜合評估的一項(xiàng)，即要求推薦人說明該生在所教的學(xué)生中應(yīng)列為前5％，10％，或25％等。這種評估是指教授的個(gè)人評價(jià)，可以稍高一點(diǎn)。另外，推薦表格上常有許多難以填寫的項(xiàng)目，遇到這種情形可填"I?don't?know"，亦不致對該生的評價(jià)有何嚴(yán)重影響。
　　推薦信尾必須有推薦人的親筆簽名，最好直接由推薦人寄給學(xué)校招生辦官員或申請就讀學(xué)校的系主任。如果由被推薦人寄送，可將推薦信裝入信封內(nèi)封好后由推薦人在信封口處親筆簽名以示保密。信封正面注明"A?Letter?Of?Recommendation"，表明這是一封推薦信。
