Letters of Recommendation

If a college does not require a letter of recommendation but they allow 3, should you still submit one? I am applying to Umass Amherst as a transfer and they do not require letters of recommendation, but on the common app they allow 3.

I see no reason not to submit; I’m sure you have/will have recs for your other Scholls anyways, right? So why not submit to UMass also?

Regardless of how many spaces the CA allows you, why don’t you see what UMass asks for? I’ll bet they want ZERO. Remember, the CA is a standard template – w/o regards to what many schools want.

Actually no T26E4. When I go on the my college tab on the common app,and click on Umass recommendation section it shows that they require 0, but allow 3.

I asked one of my business professor to write me a recommendation because I have heard the business school at Umass is really competitive.
