lor

The Letter of Recommendation (LOR) is a document that provides the admission officers with a comprehensive insight into your suitable candidature, for admission into the concerned University. This letter aims at enabling the Admission officers to gain a clearer and favorable picture of your experience, achievements, contributions, and skills communicated by the recommender through the recommendation letter.

**Types of LOR (Letter of Recommendation)**
Letter of Recommendations broadly can be classified into two broad categories based on the Nature of the Recommender:

**1. Academic LOR**

A letter of recommendation provided by a faculty member of your previous institute. Usually, universities ask you to provide two or three LORs from your previous institute (this could be your teachers from your schools in case of undergraduate courses and professors from your college in case you are applying for masters’ programs).

2. Professional LOR

Most of the MBA College Abroad have pre-defined work experience requirements. Accordingly, they request for a Professional Letter of Recommendation from an immediate supervisor. The Professional Letter of Recommendation from a Supervisor varies from an Academic LOR in terms of some specific content that focusses on the applicant’s ability to work within a team, the exposure to the domain as well as his/her leadership abilities – all necessary to the MBA course applied for.
