<p>Hi I'm really interested in Georgetown's linguistics program but I think that in order to apply, a foreign language teacher's rec is required - is this true?</p>
<p>yes - or so it says on the app</p>
<p>Yes, you need a foreign language teacher rec. By the way, what language are you majoring in? Spanish major here!!!</p>
<p>sorry for the late answer jangel86 =P I haven't been on here for a while - I want to major in linguistics, so no language in particular... I'm thinking about not applying now though, because my foreign lang teacher's new this year and we don't know each other very well. I was hoping that I could get my English teacher to write the rec. instead - wondering if that'd be considered a foreign language, since English is not my first language... where else are you applying?</p>
<p>It's important you check with your guidance counselor, and maybe you should try calling the school, to find out.</p>
<p>ooh good idea, I definitely will this week ;) thanks</p>
