References

Field work is intensive and emotionally demanding. We need to know how you may react to it.

Below is a link to the recommendation form that you will need to have two references fill out and returned the UGA-IFP. Please remember to choose people for references that have worked with you in some outdoor, group travel, or academic capacity; family and friends are not generally considered "good" references. It is your responsibility to ensure that your recommendation letters come in on time. Letters of recommendation are often a primary factor in our decision making process - please take them seriously!
