VERY IMPORTANT! Imagine that you are being asked to write a non-academic recommendation letter to be included as part of your young adult’s college admissions packet. What would you want the admissions office to know about your son/daughter that they would not be able to glean from their school records? We want to leave no stones unturned in our effort to completely characterize your student to the college admissions officials. These parental insights often make a tremendous difference in the quality of the finished college recommendation. Parents have talked about the student’s significant role in the family, their religious involvement, community and charitable work, etc. Tell us something about your student.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________20.
