Rules to remember for changes as needed:
1. You must convert all information from present tense to past tense after task listed is completed and at
end of each academic year.
2. If you are in Career Practicum or a school related work program and receive a grade for your work, you
are not a volunteer and your work experience must be identified as Career Practicum experience, to
match your transcript.
3. After you graduate, update your years of high completion in education.
4. Always update contact information for references. References need to match the same names of the
professionals who provided you with Letters of Recommendation.
5. Never request a Letter of Recommendation without attaching a resume to your Letter of Request. Your
teachers, bosses, etc. do not know all of your accomplishments, activities and roles, and these
accolades need to be addressed in your LOR letters.
6. Letters of Recommendations are a request, a professional favor, be mindful of this and accept “no” as
graciously as you accept “yes”. Allow up to two weeks for a LOR to be written, do not wait until the
last minute (your failure to prepare and plan is not someone else’s crisis).
