Hi!

I'm planning to apply for the 2024-2025 cycle next year. I'm just finishing up conducting research with a professor, and I am planning to ask them for a letter of recommendation. Is it too early to ask or should I just ask and store it until next year? I created an interfolio account, but I haven't gotten any of my letters yet.

Thanks!

I don't think it's too early to ask. See what the reference prefers.
