Do I need to provide Letters of Recommendation (LOR) for my application in Ireland/Canada for a Master's?

Yes, most master's programs in Canada require letters of recommendation (LORs) from your college professors or academic advisors. Typically, you need at least two LORs. Some programs allow one reference to be from a professional source if academic references aren't possible.

Requirements can vary by university and program, so always check the specific guidelines for your chosen course. Strong, detailed letters from referees who know your academic or professional work well will strengthen your application.

If you need help preparing your LORs, reach out to your LeapScholar counsellor for guidance.
