Can a retired university professor be a referee?
Posted: Sat Dec 13, 2025 8:09 pm
Hi, my professional referee is a retired (emeritus) university professor.
I read very contradictory information online when trying to confirm whether it’s acceptable to be retired from a job in the list of recognised professions.
Now I am very confused as to whether this person can act as my referee? Can someone please clarify if retired individuals are accepted or not?
Thank you
