Georgetown Recommendation letters

Colleges and Universities A-Z Georgetown University

Help needed: I have had problems with the Georgetown recommendation letters as I believed they were originally done through Naviance, but, when I found they are done seperately, I have been scrambling to fill out the teacher request forms so they can be sent by Wednesday’s 1/10 deadline.

HOWEVER, now I found out that I, “should select a teacher of one of your junior or senior courses according to the following guidelines: Applicants to Georgetown College Science or Pre Medical: a science or mathematics teacher
Languages and Linguistics: a foreign language teacher, Other Programs: a teacher of your choice in a core academic subject.”

As a Biology-Applicant, My Common App recommendations were from a 10th grade Science Teacher and 12th grade English teacher, neither of which would satisfy the requirements.

Does anyone have any idea of what course I should follow/can I apply? I would really like to apply and have done the supplemental essays…

The 12th grade English teacher is fine for Biology since selective universities typically want one from math or science and one from humanities or social science. You may need to call them about the Science on, is it a requirement or just a recommendation? They may be ok if the class was an AP or honors class.

@theloniusmonk Thanks, I got my 12th grade math teacher to step in last minute and write one for me, but it i will probably be a good idea to call to make sure my situation is all okay now
