What do I need to know about submitting letters of recommendation?
You should submit letters from 3 different sources. Letters can be emailed to ecpadmissions@scu.edu directly from your reference, or if mailed directly by the applicant, the recommendation must be sealed and signed by the recommender across the flap. Letters must address academic and/or professional qualifications (not just personal character) and may not be from family or friends.
