We provide letters of recommendation for applications for study abroad programs, Master's programs or scholarships. Please note the following information on requesting a letter of recommendation, required documents, and lead and processing times.
Requesting a letter of recommendation and required documents
If you would like to request a letter of recommendation, please complete the following online form.
We require the following information and documents to process your application:
- Curriculum vitae (CV) in tabular form and Transcript of Records (in one PDF file, max. 4 MB)
- Full name and address of the recipient institution
- If applicable, name and e-mail address of the recipient of the letter
- Information on whether the letter should be sent to you personally by e-mail or directly (i.e. by post or digitally) to the recipient institution. (If digital transmission to the recipient institution is desired, please provide us with the upload link or e-mail address after receiving confirmation that the letter of recommendation will be issued)
Requirements for a letter of recommendation
We prioritize requests from students who have already successfully completed one or more modules at our institute and would like to write their thesis with us.
For letters of recommendation for Master's applications, we recommend that you first contact the chair where you would like to write or have registered your Bachelor's thesis.
We issue one letter of recommendation per purpose (e.g. application for a semester abroad, Master's program or scholarship).
Lead and processing times
Please submit your request for a letter of recommendation at least four weeks before the official application deadline and include all required documents. This is the only way we can ensure that your letter of recommendation reaches the recipient institution on time. The processing time for a letter of recommendation can take up to two weeks.
