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

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.
