The person you ask should be willing to write in a meaningful way. This requires more than a few sentences but not usually more than a few paragraphs.

We encourage you to have a current employer submit one of these letters. We can not accept recommendations from close relatives.

Please list the two persons from whom we should expect responses. Persons need to include telephone contact information.

Why do you want a M.Ed. in Montessori Integrative Learning? What attracted you to the Montessori approach?

Each of us holds a world view that we value. How do you respond when your political, religious or social world view is challenged?

Students in the Master's Program spend the majority of their study time in their home community. Explain how you respond to independently scheduling your academic work. What are the study resources available to you such as libraries, research centers, universities and professionals in the field.
Only for students enrolled in the TIES option "Teaching and Learning with 6-12 Year olds."

Since there is a requirement for practicing with materials, observing children ...and 150 hours of practice teaching and research in a Montessori school, how will you satisfy this part of the program? Click here to complete an Observation and Practicum Site form.
Only for Montessori individuals following a) Montessori Emphasis Area for Practitioners, or b) Montessori School Leadership.

If you have chosen the Emphasis Area option please tell the Admissions Committee the name of your proposed area and what has led you towards a further exploration. Also state some of the questions you would like to investigate. If your Emphasis Area is based on work with children, where will you have an opportunity to observe a classroom setting? If your Emphasis Area is based on work with adults, where will you have an opportunity to observe an adult setting?

If you have chosen Montessori School Leadership, please describe your role or proposed role at a given school. Describe to the Admission's Committee what has led you to this interest as well at the particular aspects of school leadership and governance that you want to learn about.
