毫無疑問，申請美國留學都需要推薦信，能為自己爭取壹份言辭懇切、內容詳實的推薦信無疑可以為自己的申請加分。因此，請求推薦信的郵件成為是否能夠獲得好的推薦信的關鍵,對申請有著至關重要的影響。下面教大家如何給國外教授寫請求推薦信的電子郵件。
Step 1：提出請求
盡管本文講得是如何書寫請求推薦信的郵件的`寫法，需要說明的是，如果有條件的話，當面提出請老師寫推薦信往往是更好地選擇。因為除非老師人特別不nice，或者妳跟老師的關系特別差，老師壹般不會當面拒絕妳的請求。郵件請求則有被老師擱置和無視的可能。
郵件標題：Request for Recommendation for [Your Name]
該郵件標題是此類郵件比較穩妥的壹種標題。
正文：
Dear Prof. [Surname],
My name is XXX and I am a student of XXXX. I have taken part in your course XX. I am applying XXXXX program, and I was wondering whether it is possible for you to write a letter of recommendation for me.

It would be of great help and I would really appreciate it if you can send a letter of recommendation to support my application. My resume with more detailed information is attached here.
簡單介紹自己申什麽項目，為什麽申該項目。對老師可能提供的幫助表示感謝。
Thank you very much. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Best Regards,

Step 2:等待回復及繼續交涉溝通
這壹步驟的郵件的寫法依據妳與教授溝通的情況而定。妳能做的就是保持禮貌，秒回郵件，對所申項目對推薦信的各種要求了如指掌，對答如流。
Step 3:獲得推薦後感謝推薦人
Dear Prof. XXX,
