<p>Is it a very bad thing? They counted my progress report from this Columbia U program as a rec letter, and also my orchestra teacher, an alumna, sent a rec letter in addition to two academic letters. How will they judge me? Is it held against me in any way, or negatively affects my application?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>oh and to add, there is a counselor letter and my parent's letter. TOO MUCH! >.<</p>
<p>:( gosh</p>
<p>Don't worry about it. Excess recommendations aren't neccessary, but I don't think they're going to turn you down. They might not read ALL of them since you have so many though.</p>
<p>Nope. I doubt that they'll even look at your Columbia U's program- only the teachers'.</p>
