Recommendation Letters for Transfer

<p>After two years in college, I dropped out and have been traveling/working for the past two years. I wanted to continue my undergraduate education so I decided to submit transfer applications to a few higher caliber schools. I noticed that they require recommendation letters from either an instructor or professor. However, since I was away from school for two years, I have NO professor or instructor who can write recommendation letters for me. Could my employer write one instead? If anyone has some information, please. I would very much appreciate it. Thank you for reading.</p>

<p>Why can’t you contact the professors you used to have? It was only two years ago.</p>

<p>You need to look at the website for each college to see what their LOR requirements are. Most require a prof/TA/instructor, but I have seen a few that permit an employer or other person who knows you.</p>

<p>To econ981: Two years are a long time. I went to a big school; professors don’t know everyone.</p>

<p>To entomom: THANK YOU!</p>
