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 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 (2022 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
**Drop-Ins for Labor Day, Monday, 9/6 are canceled.**
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 Mondays 9:00-10:00 AM EDT and Thursdays 3:30-4:30 PM EDT. Please note that these meetings are a PUBLIC space, so others may join the session. You can join via BlueJeans at the time of the session here: [https://bluejeans.com/4545764087].
RESOURCES:
- Direct questions to our LOE coordinator at pre-health@provost.gatech.edu.

To ensure that we can process all letters for a timely review by admissions committees, we ask that letter writers adhere to our June 1 deadline.
