Colleges that don't require recommendations...

<p>This is a thread for those who, like me, don't exactly have teachers who totally love us or who are reluctant to ask for teacher recommendations because we don't have a teacher who we are confident will write stellar letters for us...</p>

<p>Anyways, so far, I've come up with:</p>

<p>Dartmouth
Emory
All the UCs
Carnegie Mellon
U of Michigan: Ann Arbor
College of William and Mary
Georgia Institute of Technology
U of Illinois: Urbana-Champaign
Rensselaer Polytechnic Inst.
U. of Washington
Penn State U.
University of Texas</p>

<p>Feel free to correct me and ADD MORE! ... Preferably tier 1 colleges though...</p>

<p>Actually I think University of Michigan - Ann Arbor do require recommendations.</p>

<p>^ Yep.</p>

<p>Dartmouth requires recommendations as well: [Application</a> Components](<a href=“http://www.dartmouth.edu/apply/admissions/firstyear/components.html#recs]Application”>http://www.dartmouth.edu/apply/admissions/firstyear/components.html#recs)</p>

<p>As does Carnegie Mellon: [Admission</a> > Admission Requirements](<a href=“Home - Computing Services - Office of the CIO - Carnegie Mellon University”>Home - Computing Services - Office of the CIO - Carnegie Mellon University)</p>

<p>Whoops…sorry…thanks for pointing that out.</p>

<p>Both carnegie mellon and rpi require recommendations. I applied to both this past year, so I can confirm that.</p>

<p>University of Minnesota</p>
