<p>if i send an extra rec letter, will they know that the rec letter is for me? my recommender mentions my name, but should i send anything else in addition to that?</p>
<p>If it’s a teacher, the Teacher Evaluation Sheet should be sent in addition to the rec letter.</p>
<p>but if it’s not…?</p>
<p>ss#</p>

<p>I’m not quite sure. If I were doing it, I’d put another note with the letter just to say who it was in regards to. Or if you want, you could have the person send the letter in with an address from your name.</p>
<p>Every document you send, including letters of recommendation, should include your full name and your birth date. SS# is no longer tracked. If you are getting a letter from a non-school person then you should have a cover sheet to the letter so it gets properly filed when it arrives.</p>
<p>What do you mean SS# is no longer tracked? It’s the most useful form of tracking!</p>
<p>According to NYU’s point, believe it or not, some people may have the same first and last name as you and be born on the same day!</p>
<p>Due to new federal privacy laws, medical institutions can no longer track SS# – and since there is this medical school as part of JHU, all JHU offices are doing away with SS# as tracking.</p>
<p>When an application is processed a JHU ID is created and that is what is used. </p>
<p>In the rarest of situations where there is a student with the same first, middle, last name and same birth date, and from the same state, and from the same high school, with the same interests – oh wait that doesn’t happen!</p>
