How many Recommenders?

High school counselor here. NYU admissions website states they accept three recommenders but Naviance is only accepting two for NYU ! Why the discrepancy?

I’d reach out to NYU.

They say this about Common App - so perhaps it’s similar:

If your recommender is unable to submit their letter through the Common Application, they can email it directly to admissions.docs@nyu.edu.

But seems to me, calling admissions will be your best bet to find out exactly how they want their third letter.

I would also call admissions, or use the popup chat box on the NYU main admission page.

FWIW, common app shows two optional teacher recommendations allowed, and one ‘other’. Could you only be seeing the teacher piece in Naviance?
