<p>How many letters of recommendation letters can we send? I am sending 4 (2 teachers, 1 guidance counselor, and 1 rec from a hospital I was volunteering at). My friend wants to send 5. Is his 5 too much? He says he heard from someone that there is a max of 4.</p>

<p>“Applicants to JHU can submit additional letters of recommendation (from another teacher, coach, employer, activity advisor, etc.) but we strongly advise that a student not submit more than 4 total letters of recommendation.”</p>

<p>Using the Search function will help with questions like this … as flybyzephyr shows. </p>

<p>I’d also recommend the Hopkins Forums as there is already a discussion thread about Letters of Recommendation: <a href=“Hentai 44 - Hentai porn”>Hentai 44 - Hentai porn;

<p>And finally, the strong recommendation is a maximum of 4 letters. All that is required is one letter from your guidance counselor and one letter from a teacher. Students have submitted more than 4 before, but the Admissions Committee would prefer that applicants didn’t do that.</p>

<p>I from the information session that someone submitted 43 letters before! (a baltimore applicant, lol)… did they get in?</p>

<p>Yes we have had in the past years numerous applicants send an over-abundance of letters of recommendations. In almost every circumstance those students are not admitted … not because they sent too many letters, but there were serious deficiencies in their application already. Probably one of the reasons they submitted so many letters.</p>
