<p>I am getting a recommendation from a college professor who guided me in my research over the last year or so. Am I better off setting up that recommendation as teacher or other? Setting it up as a teacher recommendation would mean that I have one fewer high school teacher writing a recommendation for me. But setting it up as other, may mean that the admissions committee attaches less weight to it. An additional consideration is that a few colleges allow only one teacher recommendation.</p>
<p>that would be an additional rec, since they did not teach you at your high school</p>
<p>It is definitely “other”.</p>
