Which schools have the option of an outside letter of recommendation? I have no problem getting one from my counselor or an AP teacher, although I would really like to send one from a doctor I interned for. Is there any possible way I could send his recommendation along with one from my counselor and teacher? Thank you so much! : ) ( the schools i’m applying to are the UC’s, NYU, USC, UB, and UVA)
You can see if a school accepts additional letters of rec by looking at their info on the Common App.
UC’s do not accept letters of recommendation unless they specifically request you send them in for a supplemental review. UCB did invite some applicants last year to submit 2 LOR’s. Not sure if they will be following the same procedure this year. Do not send any LOR’s to the UC’s as part of your application.
