<p>For the letters of recommendation on the common app, do the letters have to be from teachers, or can they be from other people? Also, do you know if Boston University requires a counselor recommendation?</p>
<p>Really? [Application</a> Instructions | Boston University Admissions](<a href=“http://www.bu.edu/admissions/apply/freshman/application-instructions/]Application”>http://www.bu.edu/admissions/apply/freshman/application-instructions/)</p>
<p>It does not mention whether or not a counselor recommendation is required on that page. I looked at that already.</p>
<p>From the above link:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That does not answer either of my questions!</p>
<p>The school report form is the counselor recommendation.</p>
<p>Ok, thank you, that answers my second question. But can the other letters of recommendation be from people other than teachers?</p>
<p>I know at least one has to be from a teacher. If you want to submit more I think you can choose other members of the community.</p>
<p>Ok, thank you.</p>
<p>I just found this on the Common App:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Also, the Common App only has two recommendation options, Teacher or Counselor.</p>
<p>Ok, thank you.</p>
