An enclosure in a cover letter refers to additional documents that are being sent along with the letter, such as a resume or a portfolio. The enclosure is typically mentioned at the end of the letter, after the closing, and is indicated by the word "Enclosure" or "Enclosures" followed by the number of documents included.

For example, "Enclosure: 1 resume" or "Enclosures: 2 writing samples, 1 reference list."
