If I'm only applying to UC's, should I still get letters of recommendation for scholarships?

<p>UC’s don’t want letters of rec for sure, but I heard somewhere that scholarships ask for letters of recommendation occasionally. Should I still get one?</p>

<p>Sure - what’s the harm. UCs can be very difficult to gauge your admission chances - I’d suggest you apply more broadly, even if your stats are off the charts.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>Letters of Recommendation may come in handy if you happen to get waitlisted also. Better to be prepared.</p>
