Contoh Surat Rekomendasi (Recommendation Letter) Beasiswa Luar Negeri

Ini adalah  sharing status Facebook dari dosen saya, Mr. Arif Subiyanto, yang menurut saya sangat bermanfaat bagi teman-teman yang merencanakan untuk mendapatkan surat rekomendasi dari dosen atau pimpinannya.Ya, beliau memang sangat aktif menulis status inspiratif hingga beberapa penerbit sudah melamar untuk membuat kompilasinya. Saya sendiri ingin mengompilasinya di sini. Tetapi karena pertimbangan lamaran penerbit tadi, beliau menyarankan untuk mencantumkan sumbernya jika meng-copas status beliau. Saya pun akhirnya mengurungkan niat saya walaupun telah beberapa kali memposting status beliau di blog ini. Langsung simak saja ya.

Saya hanya ingin sharing ide untuk detil isi rekomendasi bagi beberapa mahasiswa berprestasi. Bapak Ibu guru/dosen/atasan dan sebagainya, rekomendasi yang Anda buat akan punya ‘magnitude’ jika ditulis dengan sepenuh penghayatan, bukan semata-mata karena anda punya otoritas untuk menulisnya.
