A Letter of Recommendation plays a crucial role in highlighting candidate’s profile where admission committee is concerned. It should be a brief document that should provide information about their skills, talents, academic records and certifications. Majority of Canadian Universities are very specific about application documents like LOR, resumes, SOPs and essays.
In terms of Canadian Universities, they are very particular about application documents, and it is observed that references are required majorly for other degrees and in rare scenarios for undergraduate degrees. Academic letters of recommendations are needed for UG courses as well as graduate degrees.
