<p>I know that northwestern requires one teacher rec, but does anyone know if they'll accept more than one</p>
<p>They actually prefer 2. Got this from an NU admissions officer.</p>
<p>^^ that can't be possible b/c on the common app, they only allow for one teacher rec.. plus the counselor's rec.. but as far as teacher recs are concerned, they only let me put one on there and that's it (no option for a 2nd rec)</p>
<p>This is info I got straight from an NU adcom. Are you doing this online?</p>
<p>yeah, i am.. and there's absolutely no way to register a 2nd teacher rec online</p>
<p>how would i be able to send in a 2nd rec letter another way (if i can do that)?</p>
<p>my school has their own form to fill out, so i guess i can just ask for two teacher recs.</p>
<p>would it hurt to include an additional rec, from a person outside of school, as a third recommendation?</p>
<p>oh yeah, my school has its own "Teacher Recommendation Forms" for us to fill out and give to our teachers, but the problem is I have to register the the teachers on common app... i guess since it only says "required rec" for northwestern, they'll most-likely accept another rec as long as they're registered on the common app (overall.. not on each school specifically)</p>
<p>the teacher rec common app forms you have to print off anyway....so just print off two.</p>
<p>only if your teachers opt to do it offline... but luckily, one of my 2 teachers did opt for offline, so i could do that.</p>
