On this page, you can learn how to request a letter of recommendation. Depending on your current student status, please distinguish between the following two cases:
The Dean’s Office of the Business School coordinates all requests for letters of recommendation for students and alumni of the Business School (BWL). If you are a current student or alumni and need a letter of recommendation for a Master’s Program, Scholarship, Exchange Student Program, or Double Degree Program, please fill out an application centrally on the business school website.
If you are not part of the Business School (BWL), but have attended courses at our Chair, or are seeking a letter of recommendation for a PhD program, please send the following information to Rosa Holtzwart. Please note that we must receive your request at least four weeks prior to the application deadline. Your request can only be processed if all necessary documents have been received. Additionally, due to high volumes of request for letters of recommendations, please consider if there is another chair that is better suited to write you a letter of recommendation based on grades in the courses you attended at our chair and the scope of your application.
Please do not send the information required on points 1–7 as a pdf file, but insert them directly into your e-mail program. Send the e-mail and all required attachments to Rosa Holtzwart (E-Mail). Please note that your request with all necessary documents must be received at least four weeks prior to the application deadline. Thank you for your understanding!
