What are the Letters of Reference Services? (For FAQs, click here.)
These are services that allow UCLA undergraduates, graduates, and alumni (who pay an annual activation fee) to store their letters of reference for graduate and professional school programs with our department. Since these letters are solely for the purpose of supporting the application to graduate and professional school programs, we will only send letters to admissions offices at universities and colleges. We will not send letters to support applications to scholarships, fellowships, or internships. Since the purpose of these services is to send letters to multiple graduate and professional schools, we can only accept non-specifically addressed letters.
