Teach For America does not accept traditional letters of recommendation. Instead, once you are invited to an interview we ask you to submit the contact information for two recommenders. Once you submit this contact information, your recommenders will automatically be sent an email which contains a link to our Online Recommendation Form. We ask all recommenders to submit this online form, instead of a traditional letter.

Please note that recommendations are required in order to receive an offer to join the corps.
