WKB procedure is used in the study of asymptotic solutions of differential equations of the hypergeometric type. Hence asymptotic forms of classical orthogonal polynomials associated with the names Jacobi, Laguerre and Hermite have been derived. In particular, the asymptotic expansion of the Jacobi polynomials $P^{(alpha, beta)}_n(x)$ as $n$ tends to infinity is emphasized.
