Three letters of recommendation are required to process your application and must be submitted electronically.  As part of the on line application, names and email addresses of each person who will supply a recommendation need to be provided. Once you submit your application, an email will automatically be sent to each person identified as a reference and a URL link will be provided to submit the letter.  You will receive confirmation that the link has been sent to your references.  For each letter of recommendation submitted, you will receive an email confirming this action.

To change a reference or provide updated or corrected information about a reference, please contact the Graduate School at gradapps@grad.msstate.edu. You must include your full name, application Login ID, and the application term.  In addition, the name of the reference and respective change in the email address must be included.  If you are replacing a previous reference, submit the name of the new reference and respective information as well as the name of the person that is to be replaced.  No replacements are accepted after a reference has started a letter of recommendation.
