    原文:
    Recommendation letters are an integral part of the college and scholarship application process. To ensure that you get the best letter possible from your recommenders, there are a few things you should keep in mind. When I was going through the process myself, I found that asking my recommenders for a letter at least a month and a half before I needed it was ideal. My recommenders did not actually start writing any time soon after I asked, but I found that it was still beneficial to ask them early so that they could start thinking about the topics they wanted to write about in the letter and, if I was still involved in their class or activity, they could pay more attention to the work that I was doing and have more to write about.
    推荐信是申请大学和奖学金过程中必不可少的一部分。为了确保你能从推荐人那儿获取最好的推荐信,有那么几件事情你需要牢记在心里。当我自己在经历这个过程的时候,我发现理想的情况是至少提前一个半月就要从推荐人那里把推荐信拿到手了。我的推荐人实际上并不是我和他们说了就立即写的,但是我发现提早向他们要,让他们想想要在信里写什么东西还是有好处的,另外,要是这个时候我仍然和他们在一起共事,他们会更加注意我在做的事情然后有更多东西可以去写。

    Once I had asked someone to write a recommendation letter for me, I would then follow up with them at least two more times: once at three weeks before the deadline and once when there was one week left. In my experience, a meeting over lunch or dinner is usually the best time and place for a follow up as well as the most enjoyable and convenient way to allow your recommender to get to know you better. However, if you feel more comfortable with shorter meetings, then dropping in to meet your recommenders after school or emailing them also work too.
    一旦我问了别人给我写推荐信了,我至少会两次去跟进督促他们:一次是截止日期前的三个礼拜,还有一次是只剩一个礼拜的时候。根据我的经验,和他们在午餐或者晚餐的时候碰个面跟进一下是最好的时机了,同时也是最轻松,方便的方式让推荐人来了解你。然而,如果你喜欢更简短的会面,那么在放学之后去拜访一下他们或者给他们发电子邮件也是可行的。

    I found that this follow up schedule worked well because, by the first follow up, most of my recommenders had begun writing their letters and usually had enough time by then to think of specific questions they had for me about my activities/academics that they wanted to write about. The second follow up a week before the deadline also worked well because it gave my recommenders a chance to ask any last minute questions while providing them with enough time to update or change anything in the letter that needed to be revised.
    我发现这种跟进的方案很有效,因为通过第一次的跟进,我大多数的推荐人都已经开始写推荐信了,那个时候他们也有时间去想写些关于我什么样的具体内容。截止时间一个礼拜前的第二次跟进也很有用是因为那时还有时间让推荐人问我问题来修改推荐信中的细节。

    This follow up schedule is the simplest system I know of that works well. Ultimately, use your best judgment. If you feel that your recommender does not mind you checking in often, then follow up as much as you want to. However, always remember to be mindful of their time and to respect the fact that your recommenders do have other responsibilities as well.
    这样的跟进方案是我所知道的最简单的可行方案。但最根本的还是要依靠你自己的最佳判断。如果你的推荐人感觉你跟进的次数不够多,那么就多去跟进。然而,要记住他们的时间,知道他们除了给你写推荐信之外还有很多其他的事要做。
