To whom it may concern:

I am writing to you in support of Ashley Lowe and her aspiration to attend Nova Southeastern University’s Doctor of Philosophy in Education with a concentration in Research and Evaluation program. Many students call for my blessing, but I only recommend students whom I feel are well-suited for the program and school they have chosen. I recommend, without hesitation, that Ms. Lowe be given the opportunity to attend Nova Southeastern University to earn her Ph.D.

Ashley offers a unique perspective and really embraces her learning of any subject matter. She has consistently shown commitment, passion, dedication, and potential in all areas of academia.

Ms. Lowe was in my Fundamentals of Educational Research course during the 2013-2014 school year. Compared to the class average, Ashley earned an A in the class. Her current cumulative GPA is an astounding 4.0. While in my research course, she was evaluated on written journals, interaction with other students, research, and essays, in which she performed exceptionally well. Her work clearly shows her ability to deliver clear, concise, and well-thought demonstration with a new perspective within her studies.

With all of this in mind, I am sure you will find Ashley to be a highly motivated, competent, and committed student who will mature into a successful professional educational researcher and evaluator. In closing, I would like to recommend Ashley Lowe for admission into Nova’s Doctor of Philosophy in Education with a concentration in Research and Evaluation program.

Sincerely,

Kathleen Lunsford Ph.D. 503.816.4732 Associate Professor, College of Education Ashford University 400 N Bluff Blvd, Clinton, IA 52732
