Reference letters: how long?


Recommended Posts

Quick question... I've had a couple of my referees ask how long their reference letters should be and I actually have no idea what to tell them. Is there a standard length for these things? Or at least a generally accepted min/max I should tell them? I have great references who would all be happy to write as much as necessary, but I don't want them writing novels if OMSAS only wants a page :)

There is no limit or guide. Usually between 1-2 pages is fine.
