Two Faculty Recommendation Forms

Talk to faculty you have had as a student who teach courses you would like to support as a tutor. You will need to find two faculty willing to complete and submit a Tutor Recommendation Form on your behalf.

  1. Email both faculty the Tutor Recommendation Form and ask them to fill it out and email it to lrc@csuci.edu by the specified due date.
  2. You do not need to wait for faculty to email the recommendations to apply. On your application include the names of the faculty who will be sending recommendations.

What if I am nominated by a faculty member? 

We take into serious consideration students who have been nominated by faculty to be tutors. If one or more faculty members nominate you, this counts as one recommendation form. You will still need to one faculty recommendation form in addition to any nominations you have received.

What happens after I submit my application?
