Dermatology Standard Letter of Recommendation (SLOR)
In order to standardize the evaluation of applicants, improve inter-rater reliability, and better meet the needs of the dermatology community, an AAD workgroup has redesigned the SLOR for dermatology. The enhanced SLOR includes a re-formatted “assessment” section with new categories and a method of evaluating the applicant. Additionally, we incorporated room for comments under each area of assessment. Download SLOR.
