 I generally do not give personalized reference letters for large fundamental undergraduate courses (e.g., PSYC2020), because the course structure does not allow me sufficient individualized interaction with each student to truly talk the student. To be able to do so, we would need to have met and talked in-depth during the semester and/or started working on something together.  I generally do not give personalized reference letters for large fundamental undergraduate courses (e.g., PSYC2020), because the course structure does not allow me sufficient individualized interaction with each student to truly talk the student.

   - Think carefully how many applications you want me to help you with, I have my limits. I have hundreds of students, if I complete reference letters for all of them to all places they're applying I won't be able to do anything else.   - Think carefully how many applications you want me to help you with, I have my limits.

-    - For course instructor: I will support up to __**2**__ applications, no more.  +    - For taught course student: I will support up to __**2**__ applications.  
-    - For thesis students: Up to __**5**__ applications. +    - For guided thesis UG/MA students: Up to __**4**__ applications. 
-  - I will only do things **electronically**. Please do not ask me to do reference letters that require mailing in post/printing/scanning, etc. I simply do not have the time to mess around with these 18th century requests. It shows lack of respect for referees' time. If you really need my help in places that require those, ask wherever you're applying to if they can make an exception in my case. Refer them to this page. +    - For students who published with me: Up to __**4**__ applications.
