Making               the               letter               writing               process               as               easy               and               organized               as               possible               for               those               who               have               agreed               to               write               your               letters               of               recommendation               is               worth               whatever               time               and               effort               you               put               into               it.

Not               only               does               a               well-organized               packet               help               your               recommenders               (or               "letter               writers")               to               generate               a               targeted               and               strong               letter               for               you,               but               it               also               distinguishes               you               as               a               professional               student.

Furthermore,               it               almost               guarantees               that               your               recommenders               will               have               completed               your               letters               by               the               deadline               you               will               have               given               them               in               your               cover               letter               (we'll               go               over               that               in               a               second).

If               you               don't               have               3               recommenders               ready               to               write               letters               for               you               yet,               see               my               article,               "How               to               Prepare               Before               You               Apply               to               Graduate               School."               Otherwise,               continue               reading.
               Invest               in               3               of               those               five-tab               colorful               folders               from               your               local               office               supply               store.

Mark               the               1st               tab               of               each               folder               "Cover               Letter."               Mark               the               2nd               tab               "Statement               of               Purpose"               or               "Personal               Statement"               (they               are               the               same               thing).

Mark               the               3rd               tab               "CV."               Mark               the               4th               tab               "Transcripts."               Finally,               mark               the               5th               tab               "Schools."               Here's               how               to               create               the               contents               for               each               tab:
               TABS               #1               &               2:               In               order               to               keep               my               articles               on               applying               to               grad               school               as               succinct               as               possible,               I               have               dedicated               separate               articles               to               tabs               #1               (the               cover               letter)               and               #2               (the               statement               of               purpose/personal               statement).

If               you               need               help               with               these               particular               items,               you               will               want               to               refer               to               these               specific               articles.
               TAB               #3               (the               CV):               The               CV               (for               Curriculum               Vitae...

sometimes               also               referred               to               as,               simply,               a               "Vita")               can               be               used               for               many               things,               but               in               this               case,               it               is               basically               an               academic               résumé.

In               addition               to               supplying               your               recommenders               with               this               information,               you               will               also               want               to               send               along               a               copy               of               your               CV               with               each               graduate/law               school               application.
               Your               CV               is               comprised               of               various               categories               ranging               from               "Academic               Awards"               to               "Volunteer               Work."               I               know               that,               at               first,               it               might               seem               like               you               haven't               done               much               and               you               may               even               fear               that               you               won't               have               anything               valuable               to               include               in               your               CV.

However,               I               bet               you'll               be               surprised               about               just               how               much               you've               done               once               you               get               started.
               On               that               note,               don't               "fluff"               up               a               CV               with               a               bunch               of               nonsense               or               by               including               the               same               achievement               in               more               than               one               category.

If               you               received               a               scholarship,               for               example,               you               must               choose               whether               to               place               it               in               an               "Academic               Achievement"               category               or               an               "Honors"               category,               but               not               both.
               Here's               the               URL               to               some               great               CV               tips               (it               also               includes               a               link               to               a               sample               CV               at               the               bottom               of               the               page:               http://www.aafp.org/online/en/home/publications/otherpubs/strolling/prep/preparecv.html.
               If               you               honestly               do               not               have               anything               to               place               in               a               certain               category,               do               yourself               a               favor               and               simply               omit               that               category               altogether.
               Above               all,               keep               your               CV               short,               well-organized,               simple               in               format,               and               legible!

You               can               follow               a               generic               format,               by               using               any               one               of               the               templates               found               on               http://www.cvtips.com/CV_example.html.

Personally,               though,               I               preferred               to               create               my               own               template               because               I               wanted               my               CV               to               reflect               some               degree               of               creativity.

If               you               are               interested               in               viewing               my               CV               template               (which               is               more               appropriate               for               applying               to               graduate               school               than               most               of               the               other               templates               I've               seen               online),               I               have               yet               another               Associated               Content               article               with               this               information.

See,               "Applying               to               Graduate/Law               School?:               A               CV               Sample               Template."               Then,               you               can               feel               free               to               be               as               creative               as               you'd               like               with               the               headings               and               subheadings.

As               long               as               they               stand               out,               and               as               long               as               your               formatting               is               consistent,               you               can               explore               different               styles.
               One               final               note               on               CVs,               by               the               way:               While               some               sites               say               that               each               section               of               your               CV               should               list               your               achievements               in               chronological               order,               and               while               others               explain               that               the               chronology               should               be               listed               in               the               reverse               order               (beginning               with               the               most               recent,               and               then               working               your               way               back),               the               most               important               thing               is               to               be               consistent.

Nevertheless,               usually               academically-geared               CVs               are               listed               in               reverse               chronological               order.
               TAB               #4               (Transcripts):               Although               the               graduate               programs               to               which               you               are               applying               will               require               official               transcripts,               the               transcripts               you               include               in               your               Recommender               Packet               need               not               be               "official."               Up-to-date               transcripts               of               some               sort               (whether               official               or               unofficial)               are               good               to               include               in               your               packet               so               that               your               letter               writers               have               a               clearer               vision               of               the               type               of               student               you               are               in               a               broader               sense.
               If               you               have               a               couple               of               less-than-pleasing               grades,               and               if               you               have               explanations               for               these               little               bumps               in               your               academic               road,               you               may               want               to               consider               a               brief               addendum               to               your               transcripts.

If,               for               instance,               you               had               to               withdraw               from               two               classes               as               a               result               of               needing               to               work               more,               just               explain               this               to               your               recommenders               in               a               very               brief,               typed               note,               and               attach               this               to               the               front               of               your               transcripts.
               TAB               #5               (Schools):               Here               is               where               your               research               comes               in               handy.

You               need               to               visit               the               websites               for               each               program               to               which               you               are               applying.

Then,               find               the               place               where               they               explain               "about               the               program."               If               this               mentions               anything               along               the               lines               of               your               particular               interests,               copy               and               paste               this               information               into               some               type               of               writing               file               (like               "Notepad").
               If               you               cannot               find               any               information               related               to               your               specific               research               interests,               you               might               want               to               reconsider               the               reasons               for               wanting               to               apply               to               that               program               in               the               first               place.

If               you're               still               set               on               applying               to               the               program,               but               cannot               find               the               information               you're               looking               for               on               their               "Home"               page               or               "About               Us"               page,               then               go               to               the               "Faculty"               page.

There,               you               should               be               able               to               sift               through               a               list               of               faculty               in               that               program.

Go               through               every               single               faculty               member's               bio.

When               you               strike               upon               someone               who               works               on               whatever               it               is               that               you               are               interested               in               researching               (or               if               the               professor's               work               is               similar               to               your               interests),               copy               and               paste               the               information               into               your               writing               file.
               Do               this               for               every               university               to               which               you               are               applying.

Trust               me;               this               will               help               you               in               many,               many               ways.

Not               only               can               you               use               these               "notes"               to               help               your               recommenders               formulate               more               targeted               letters,               but               you               can               also               refer               back               to               this               file               while               preparing               your               statement               of               purpose.
               Finally,               organize               and               synthesize               the               information               so               that               you               end               up               with               about               2               sentences               for               each               program.

For               example:
               University               of               Illinois               at               Chicago:               With               the               Race,               Ethnicity,               and               Gender               program,               doctoral               studies               in               Sociology               at               the               University               of               Illinois               at               Chicago               presents               an               environment               whereby               my               research               interests               intersecting               gender,               sexuality,               sociology,               and               culture               can               be               further               developed.

In               particular,               the               works               of               Drs.

Orum               and               Warner               would               prove               valuable               to               my               own               interests,               as               they               also               focus               on               gender,               religion,               and               community.


               
University               of               Texas               at               Austin:               With               specializations               in               Criminology,               Religion,               and               Gender,               the               doctoral               program               in               Sociology               at               the               University               of               Texas               at               Austin               presents               an               environment               whereby               my               research               interests               intersecting               gender,               religion,               sociology,               sexuality,               and               culture               can               be               further               developed.

In               particular,               the               works               of               Drs.

Ellison,               Williams,               Woodberry,               and               Regnerus               would               prove               valuable               to               my               own               interests,               as               they               also               focus               on               gender,               religion,               culture,               and               family.
               When               you               hand               your               letter               writers               this               professionally               organized               folder               containing               well-written,               concise,               and               useful               information,               they               will               be               as               impressed               as               they               will               be               relieved.

A               lot               of               students               do               not               take               the               time               and               effort               it               requires               to               put               all               of               this               information               together               for               recommenders.

As               a               result,               professors               often               find               it               stressful               to               write               letters               of               recommendation               for               students...

especially               when               they               are               provided               with               no               information               about               the               student's               deadlines               (Cover               Letter),               goals               (Statement               of               Purpose),               bragging               points               (CV),               overall               abilities               to               succeed               academically               (Transcripts),               or               programs               of               interest               (Schools).
