How It Works

Georgia Tech Letters of Evaluation Service

The Georgia Tech Letters of Evaluation (LOE) service is a letter packet compilation service for pre-health students and alumni. Pre-health advisors do not write letters of evaluation or committee letters. Instead, evaluators send their letters to Pre-Health Advising, and we disseminate the letters as a packet to health professional schools or application services (i.e. AMCAS, AACOMAS, AADSAS, TMDSAS, and/or AACPMAS) once an applicant makes a formal upload request. Please make note that:

  • A maximum of 6 letters are allowed in your Letter Packet
  • All school will accept your Letter Packet as it is an official GT Pre-Health service
  • All letters submitted to the LOE packet service will be included in your packet of letters

All steps and directions are on GT Pre-Health Canvas.  

If you are applying this summer (2024 cycle) and have not started the letter collection process with us, please connect with a pre-health advisor and Ms. Morris during the virtual drop-in sessions in order to best evaluate how our office can best support you in this process.

LOE Virtual Drop-in Hours:

Canceled dates: Holidays and GT closures

All inquiries can be sent to: pre-health@provost.gatech.edu 

If you have quick questions related to the LOEs, you can connect virtually with the LOE Coordinator, Ms. Monique Morris, on Tuesdays 11:00-12:00 PM EDT and Fridays 1:00-2:00 PM EDT. Please note that these meetings are a PUBLIC space, so others may join the session.

To ensure that we can process all letters for a timely review by admissions committees, we ask that letter writers submit letters as early as possible and adhere to our final May 31 deadline.
