When do you use an academic reference Letters?

You should consider collecting at least one of them if you're applying to college, going to graduate school, looking to obtain financial aid or a scholarship, or trying to get a job but don't have much formal working experience.

You may have already realized that using one with your college admissions made sense but when you look at how important it can be to something like being awarded scholarship money or getting financial aid, it becomes even more crucial to ask the right person and to go that extra mile to ask them in the most professional and best way possible.
