Dear Mr. Brinker,

As we have discussed many of times before I plan to go to college and continue to get a better education. I would appreciate it greatly if you would write a recommendation letter for me so that I could receive the scholarships that I apply for. Because I have taken two of your courses in my high school career here at Roosevelt, you know the kind of work ethic I obtain, as well as my qualities as a person, and my potential to excel after high school.

As my instructor for geography and American government classes, you are aware of my grades, my work behavior, and my study habits. I am confident that you have a good sense of if I can succeed at the college level. I am asking for your recommendation because I will be applying for multiple scholarships here in the near future. I have recently been accepted to Colorado State University Pueblo, Adams State College, and the University of Northern Colorado.

Thank you for your help, I really appreciate you taking the time to write this letter for me.

Yours sincerely,

Sam Hardy
