Trying to put together a spreadshseet with the application requirements for each school we are considering and I am confused by the statements on some school websites about whether letters of recommendation are or are not required to be submitted.
For example, one school D is considering has the following statement:
“Please note, however, that letters of recommendation are not required. If you do choose to submit them, we will accept one counselor recommendation and one teacher recommendation.”
The CDS for this school says that they consider letters of recommendation.
Should we always submit letters of recommendation when offered the opportunity? I assume teachers just prepare a generic letter that can be sent to multiple schools?
Is the guidance counselor recommendation some type of standard form that they complete that is not school specific?
