How the Committee Letter of Evaluation is Written
Committee Letters are constructed from materials provided by the applicant, insight gained through the Committee Letter Interview, applicants’ SLC course narrative evaluations, and the applicants’ individual letters of recommendation. Dean Melinda Perlo Cohen works closely with the faculty to oversee the letters’ composition. All letters will be reviewed, edited and finalized by Melinda to ensure consistency, accuracy, and comprehensiveness.
Every applicants’ Committee Letter of Evaluation includes the following components:
-
Cover Letter (standardized letter describing the nature of our school, curriculum, and committee letter process
-
Individualized Narrative Assessment (drawn from the CL portfolio, CL interview, course narrative evaluations, Individual Letters of Recommendation)
-
Individual Letters of Recommendation (all LORs submitted for an applicant are packaged with the cover letter and individualized narrative assessment.
