How do I ask someone to fill out a reference letter/form?

Question

I want to get into a summer program at a college I want to attend next year. How to I approach the people I need references from? What should I say?

Answer 1

Teachers counselors and principals do that kind of thing all the time. You just tell them whats going on and politely ask them if they whould mind writing you a refrence letter.

all you have to say is "there is a summer program at (insert college name here) that I would like to attend and I need a letter of recomendation/you to fill out this form so I can go if you wouldn't mind/please."

Answer 2

i ought to call first. In some organizations, administration is forbidden to make any comments previous confirming the worker's call and employment dates. Many organizations are terrified of being sued if something is going incorrect.
