Registration Information

Ph.D. Recommendations

General Guidelines:

  1. A recommendation from the Master’s degree supervisor is mandatory. If there is more than one supervisor, recommendations must be obtained from all supervisors.
  2. In the Departments of Life Sciences, Computer and Information Science, and the Faculty of Business & Management: in addition to the recommendations listed in item 1, a recommendation from the designated supervisor(s) is required.
  3. Two additional recommendations (excluding supervisors) from scholars at academic institutions holding a Ph.D.
  4. For the “direct track” (direct continuation from a Bachelor’s degree), three recommendations overall are required.
  5. Upon completion of registration, an email containing a link will be sent to the candidate. This link must be forwarded to the referees to add their recommendations online.
  6. Recommendations are confidential and must be submitted directly to the Kreitman School following the instructions.

Online Submission of Recommendations via the System:

  1. Upon completion of registration, the names of the referees and their correct email addresses must be entered in the candidate’s Application Portal.
  2. The candidate must send the link to the online recommendation form received by email (see item 5 above) to their referees.
  3. Referees will enter the system using their email address and ID number and complete the online form. If there is a mismatch between the email address entered into the system and the referees’ actual email addresses, the recommendation cannot be submitted.
  4. The recommendations will be sent directly to the Kreitman School.
