For your UK master's application, you'll usually need two letters of recommendation—one from an academic referee who knows your abilities, and one from a professional contact (if possible). Avoid references from friends or family. Make sure your referees can give strong, relevant examples of your skills. Check each university’s specific guidelines, as requirements can vary. Providing your CV and personal statement will help your referees write tailored recommendations.
