The Letter of Recommendation for Higher Studies is a critical document in the academic advancement process within Malta's educational system. It serves as a professional assessment tool for academic institutions to evaluate prospective students' capabilities and potential. This document type is typically required for applications to graduate programs, research positions, or advanced academic studies, providing detailed insights into the candidate's academic performance, research capabilities, and personal qualities. Under Maltese jurisdiction, these letters must comply with the Education Act (CAP. 327), the Malta Qualifications Framework, and EU GDPR requirements for handling personal data. The document should be written by someone in a position to evaluate the candidate's academic or professional performance and must provide specific, relevant examples of the candidate's capabilities and achievements.
