Maximum number of recommendations?

<p>Is it okay to send in 3 recommendations from 3 teachers?</p>

<p>Will it really enhance your application or just say the same things another time? If it will really enhance it, go ahead, the worst that will happen is they don't want to read it and they throw it out.</p>

<p>I asked. They said 4 was ok, but my son is homeschooled, and they often want extras.</p>

<p>a friend of mine has that trouble too.</p>

<p>He wants to get 3 teachers + optional rec from a research mentor.</p>

<p>is that ok?</p>

<p>just try to keep under 4. the only people i know that got in either had 2 or 4. so even 4 is fine. Just don't do over 4 and make sure they are totally different</p>

<p>by 4 do u count counselor rec?</p>

<p>or just 3 teachers + 1 optional?</p>

<p>4 teacher/mentor/club advisor
generally only 2 from school teacher, the other 2 are from outside things</p>
