<p>I am applying to a couple Ivys and NYU Stern for transfer, and for the recommendation, is it ok if TAs write it? The issue is, I think that the TAs can write a better recommendation and they know me more personally. Is this frowned upon or OK?</p>
<p>It’s OK unless stated otherwise by the college. You definitely want to go with the person who can write the best LOR.</p>
<p>I am just a little concerned because I called Penn several times (to get several people to answer) and a couple times they said yes, but one time they said no, Professors only. Hmm…Has anyone actually used TA recommendations and knows for certain its OK?</p>
