Letter of Recommendation

I am happy to write letters of recommendation for students who have demonstrated strong performance and commitment in my classroom or research lab.

Please submit your request at least two weeks before the letter is due. Your request should include a complete packet with:

  • Any required recommendation forms
  • Your current resume
  • An unofficial academic transcript
  • A personal statement (if available)
  • A summary of the programs you are applying to, including names, addresses, and deadlines

I ask that you waive your right to view the letter. If you choose not to waive this right, I will be unable to write the recommendation. This policy ensures that my letters provide a candid and credible assessment of your qualifications.

Finally, please complete the form linked below to help me write a detailed and personalized letter. Once finished, email the form and your application materials to shiyu.li{at}lsu.edu.
